We propose a general-purpose stochastic optimization algorithm, the so-called annealing stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (ASAMC) algorithm, for neural network training. ASAMC c...
— In connectionist learning, one relevant problem is “catastrophic forgetting” that may occur when a network, trained with a large set of patterns, has to learn new input pat...

The Brain is a slow computer yet humans can skillfully play games such as tennis where very fast reactions are required. Of particular interest is the evidence for strategic thinki...
Most of the work on the Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension of neural networks has been focused on feedforward networks. However, recurrent networks are also widely used in learning app...
We derive cost formulae for three di erent parallelisation techniques for training supervised networks. These formulae are parameterised by properties of the target computer archit...
