Deep autoencoders, and other deep neural networks, have demonstrated their effectiveness in discovering non-linear features across many problem domains. However, real-world problems, large outliers pervasive noise are commonplace, one may not access to clean training data as required by standard denoising autoencoders. Herein, we demonstrate novel extensions autoencoders which only maintain a autoencoders' ability discover high quality, but can also eliminate without any data. Our model is...
