For this purpose we assume that we have identifiable models, up to a finite group of transformations on the weights, this is for example the case when the number of hidden units is know. In this framework, we show that we get a simple asymptotic distribution, if we use the logarithm of the determinant of the empirical error covariance matrix as cost function.Statistics TheoryMachine Learningtext
