denoising-autoencoder-mnist-3.3.1.py

'''Trains a denoising autoencoder on MNIST dataset.

Denoising is one of the classic applications of autoencoders.
The denoising process removes unwanted noise that corrupted the
true data.

Noise + Data ---> Denoising Autoencoder ---> Data

Given a training dataset of corrupted data as input and
true data as output, a denoising autoencoder can recover the
hidden structure to generate clean data.

This example has modular design. The encoder, decoder and autoencoder
are 3 models that share weights. For example, after training the
autoencoder, the encoder can be used to  generate latent vectors
of input data for low-dim visualization like PCA or TSNE.
