Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing inputs using a neural network system that includes a batch normalization layer. One of the methods includes receiving a respective first layer output for each training example in the batch; computing a plurality of normalization statistics for the batch from the first layer outputs; normalizing each component of each first layer output using the normalization statistics to generate a respective normalized layer output for each training example in the batch; generating a respective batch normalization layer output for each of the training examples from the normalized layer outputs; and providing the batch normalization layer output as an input to the second neural
