Helmholtz machine refers to a type of multilayer neural network in which top-down connections implement a generative model of the sensory input and bottom-up connections are used to perform perceptual inference by computing a variational approximation to the true posterior distribution over the hidden states.

Dr. Geoffrey E. Hinton, University of Toronto, CANADA, was invited on 18 April 2008.
