概要	A Restricted Boltzmann Machine is a two-layer generative probabilistic model consisting of visible (observed) and hidden (latent) binary units connected by an undirected bipartite graph with no within-layer connections. Originally introduced as the 'Harmonium' by Paul Smolensky in 1986 and powerfully revived by Geoffrey Hinton and Ruslan Salakhutdinov in their landmark 2006 Science paper, RBMs became historically pivotal as the building block for greedy layer-wise pre-training of Deep Belief Networks, restarting interest in deep neural networks after years of stagnation.	A Deep Belief Network is a generative probabilistic model composed of multiple layers of stochastic, latent variables. Introduced by Hinton, Osindero, and Teh in 2006, DBNs were among the first deep architectures to be trained efficiently. Each pair of adjacent layers forms a Restricted Boltzmann Machine, and the network is trained greedily, one layer at a time, before optional supervised fine-tuning. DBNs revived interest in deep learning and demonstrated that hierarchical feature learning from raw data is tractable.	The Variational Autoencoder (VAE) is a deep generative latent-variable model, introduced by Diederik Kingma and Max Welling in 2014, that encodes data as a probability distribution in a latent space and samples from that distribution to generate new examples. It is used for data generation, anomaly detection, and feature learning.
