Computational Elements of the Adaptive Controller of the Human Arm
We consider the problem of how the CNS learns to control dynamics of a mechanical system. By using a paradigm where a subject's hand interacts with a virtual mechanical envir...

Analyzing Cross-Connected Networks
The non-linear complexities of neural networks make network solutions difficult to understand. Sanger's contribution analysis is here extended to the analysis of networks aut...

Temporal Difference Learning of Position Evaluation in the Game of Go
The game of Go has a high branching factor that defeats the tree search approach used in computer chess, and long-range spatiotemporal interactions that make position evaluation e...

Structural and Behavioral Evolution of Recurrent Networks
This paper introduces GNARL, an evolutionary program which induces recurrent neural networks that are structurally unconstrained. In contrast to constructive and destructive algor...

The Power of Amnesia
We propose a learning algorithm for a variable memory length Markov process. Human communication, whether given as text, handwriting, or speech, has multi characteristic time scal...

Optimal Stochastic Search and Adaptive Momentum
Stochastic optimization algorithms typically use learning rate schedules that behave asymptotically as (t) = 0=t. The ensemble dynamics (Leen and Moody, 1993) for such algorithms ...
