Back propagation equation proof












1












$begingroup$


I am trying to prove this equation (from the backpropagation equations in AI).



$$frac{partial C}{partial b_j^l} = delta_j^l$$



C is the cost function: $C = frac{1}{2}||y - a^L||^2$



Where the output of layer l and neuron j is express like so $a^l_j=σ(∑_kw^l_{jk}a^{l−1}_k+b^l_j)$



I am suppose to use this assertion to do the demonstration: $delta_j^L = frac{partial C}{partial z_j^L}$



So far, here is what I have tried:



$$frac{partial C}{partial z_j^L} = sum_k frac{partial C}{partial z_j^L} frac{partial b_j^l}{partial b_j^L} $$ (I am using the chain rule to have a sum)



<=> $$frac{partial C}{partial z_j^L} = sum_k frac{partial C}{partial b_j^l} frac{partial b_j^l}{partial z_j^L} $$



So I guess I have to prove, that $frac{partial b_j^l}{partial z_j^L}$ equals 1.



But I don't have any ideas how to prove it.



Thanks for your help



N.B
I am following this course => http://neuralnetworksanddeeplearning.com/chap2.html where the first two equations of the BackPropagation equations are already proved, and the 2 others should be proved the same way (using the chain rule)

          By definition, $$ frac{partial C}{partial z_j^ell} = delta_j^ell $$ $$ z^ell_k = sum_i w_{ki}^ell a^{ell -1}_j + b_k^{ell} $$
          the latter of which means that
          $$ frac{partial z^ell_k}{partial b_alpha^ell} = Delta^ell_{kalpha}=begin{cases}
          1 & text{if } k=alpha \ 0 & text{otherwise} end{cases} $$

          We want to show that
          $$ frac{partial C}{partial b_j^ell} = delta_j^ell $$
          Since $C$ depends on $b_beta$ through $z^beta$, we can use the chain rule:
          begin{align}
          frac{partial C}{partial b_j^ell}
          &= sum_zeta frac{partial C}{partial z_zeta^ell} frac{partial z_zeta^ell}{partial b_j^ell} \
          &= sum_zeta delta^ell_zeta Delta^ell_{zeta j} \
          &= delta^ell_j
          end{align}

          where the Kronecker delta $Delta_{zeta j}^ell$ collapses out the sum except for the $j$th term.
