چکیده

Learning as a function of task complexity was examined in human learning and two connectionist simulations. An example task involved learning to map basic input/output digital logic functions for six digital gates (AND OR, XOR and negated versions) with 2or 6-inputs. Humans given instruction learned the task in about 300 trials and showed no effect of the number of inputs. Backpropagation learning in a network with 20 hidden units required 68,000 trials and scaled poorly, requiring 8 times as many trials to learn the 6-input gates as to learn the 2-input gates. A second simulation combined backpropagation with task division based upon rules humans use to perform the task. The combined approach improved the scaling of the problem, learning in 3,100 trials and requiring about 3 times as many trials to learn the 6-input gates as to learn the 2-input gates. Issues regarding scaling and augmenting connectionist learning with rule-based instruction are discussed.

Computational modeling of dynamic decision making using connectionist networks

In this research connectionist modeling of decision making has been presented. Important areas for decision making in the brain are thalamus, prefrontal cortex and Amygdala. Connectionist modeling with 3 parts representative for these 3 areas is made based the result of Iowa Gambling Task. In many researches Iowa Gambling Task is used to study emotional decision making. In these kind of decisio...

INTEGRATED ADAPTIVE FUZZY CLUSTERING (IAFC) NEURAL NETWORKS USING FUZZY LEARNING RULES

The proposed IAFC neural networks have both stability and plasticity because theyuse a control structure similar to that of the ART-1(Adaptive Resonance Theory) neural network.The unsupervised IAFC neural network is the unsupervised neural network which uses the fuzzyleaky learning rule. This fuzzy leaky learning rule controls the updating amounts by fuzzymembership values. The supervised IAFC ...

A Constructive Connectionist Approach Towards Continual Robot Learning

This work presents an approach for combining reinforcement learning, learning by imitation, and incremental hierarchical development. The approach is used in a realistic simulated mobile robot that learns to perform a navigation task by imitating the movements of a teacher and then continues to learn by receiving reinforcement. The behaviours of the robot are represented as sensation-action rul...

Language development and acquisition in children

Language acquisition is a natural developmental process and is unique to Homo sapiens in which a child acquiring his or her mother tongue as a first language.  The simplest theory of language development is that children learn language by imitating adult language. A second possibility is that children acquire language through conditioning. Noam Chomsky put forward innateness hypothesis. Piaget ...

Data Mining using Nonmonotonic Connectionist Expert Systems

An application of Nonmonotonic Connectionist Expert Systems (NCESs) in mining classi cation rules from large relational databases is presented. NCESs are hybrid learning systems that can acquire symbolic knowledge of a nonmonotonic domain, represented using nonmonotonic inheritance networks. This initial knowledge can be re ned using connectionist learning techniques and a set of classi ed exam...
