Abstract: We prove that every strictly positive probability distribution on \(\{-1,1\}^n\) is represented exactly by a sigmoid belief network with finite parameters. This answers a question of Sutskever and Hinton. The proof upgrades their probability-sharing approximation to exact representation using Brouwer's fixed-point theorem.
