Conventional frequentist federated learning (FL) schemes are known to yield overconfident decisions. Bayesian FL addresses this issue by allowing agents process and exchange uncertainty information encoded in distributions over the model parameters. However, comes at cost of a larger per-iteration communication overhead. This letter investigates whether can still provide advantages terms calibr...

While the information technologies provide organizational members with explicit concepts, such as writing instruction manuals, the ‘organizational memory’ provides individuals with tacit knowledge, such as systematic sets, routines and shared visions. This means that individuals within an organization learn by using both the organizational memory and the information technologies. They interact ...

Hebbian learning, the paradigm of memory formation, needs further mechanisms to guarantee creation and maintenance of a viable memory system. One such additional mechanism is Hebbian unlearning, a process hypothesized to occur during sleep. It can remove spurious states and eliminate global correlations in the memory system. The problem of spurious states is unimportant in the biologically inte...

We suggest that any brain-like (artificial neural network based) learning system will need a sleep-like mechanism for consolidating newly learned information if it wishes to cope with the sequential/ongoing learning of significantly new information. We summarise and explore two possible candidates for a computational account of this consolidation process in Hopfield type networks. The “pseudore...

There is now ample evidence that extinction, the loss of learned performance that occurs when a Pavlovian signal or an instrumental action is repeatedly presented without its reinforcer, does not reflect a destruction of the original learning. This article summarizes the evidence and extends and updates earlier reviews. The main alternative to "unlearning" is the idea that extinction (as well a...
