Explanation of the "virtual input" phenomenon
We write this letter to comment on the "virtual input" phenomenon reported by Thaler (Neural Networks, 8(1) (1995) 55-65). The author attributed the phenomenon to the network's ability to perform pattern classification and completion, and reported that pruning probability affects the number of virtual inputs observed. Our independent study of Thaler's results, however, reveals a simpler explana...

متن کاملPeripheral and Spinal Mechanisms of Acupoint Sensitization Phenomenon
This study was carried out on adult female Sprague-Dawley rats to observe the position, size, and sensitivity change of inflammatory reactions on body surfaces induced by colorectal import of inflammatory irritant mustard oil. Colorectal distension (CRD) was adopted as a visceral noxious stimulus to record the activities of spinal dorsal horn wide-dynamic range (WDR) neurons activities at spina...
متن کاملA simple algorithmic explanation for the concentration of measure phenomenon
We give an elementary algorithmic argument that sheds light on the concentration of measure phenomenon observed in the sum of independent random variables. Roughly speaking, we observe that without concentration of measure, it would be possible to predict the outcome of a fair coin toss with probability greater than 1/2. We use this idea to derive an alternative proof for a particular case of t...
متن کاملA Compositional Explanation of the 'Pet Fish' Phenomenon
The ‘pet fish’ phenomenon is often cited as a paradigm example of the ‘non-compositionality’ of human concept use. We show here how this phenomenon is naturally accommodated within a compositional distributional model of meaning. This model describes the meaning of a composite concept by accounting for interaction between its constituents via their grammatical roles. We give two illustrative ex...
