The present paper aims to interpret final representations obtained by neural networks by maximizing the mutual information between neurons and data sets. Because complex procedures are needed to maximize information, the computational procedures are simplified as much as possible using the present method. The simplification lies in realizing mutual information maximization indirectly by focusing on the potentiality of neurons. The method was applied to restaurant data for which the ordinary regression analysis could not show good performance. For this problem, we tried to interpret final representations and obtain improved generalization performance. The results revealed a simple configuration where just a single important feature was extracted to explicitly explain the motivation to visit the restaurant.
