The ability of humans for lifelong learning is an inspiration for deep learning methods and in particular for continual learning. In this work, we apply Hebbian learning, a biologically inspired learning process, to sound classification. We…
Hebbian plasticity is a powerful principle that allows biological brains to learn from their lifetime experience. By contrast, artificial neural networks trained with backpropagation generally have fixed connection weights that do not…
The binary perceptron is the simplest artificial neural network formed by $N$ input units and one output unit, with the neural states and the synaptic weights all restricted to $\pm 1$ values. The task in the teacher--student scenario is to…
To train deep convolutional neural networks, the input data and the intermediate activations need to be kept in memory to calculate the gradient descent step. Given the limited memory available in the current generation accelerator cards,…
We introduce into the classical perceptron algorithm with margin a mechanism that shrinks the current weight vector as a first step of the update. If the shrinking factor is constant the resulting algorithm may be regarded as a…
The brain is targeted for processing temporal sequence information. It remains largely unclear how the brain learns to store and retrieve sequence memories. Here, we study how recurrent networks of binary neurons learn sequence attractors…
In many classification problems a classifier should be robust to small variations in the input vector. This is a desired property not only for particular transformations, such as translation and rotation in image classification problems,…
Understanding the theoretical foundations of how memories are encoded and retrieved in neural populations is a central challenge in neuroscience. A popular theoretical scenario for modeling memory function is the attractor neural network…
The learned weights of a neural network have often been considered devoid of scrutable internal structure. In this paper, however, we look for structure in the form of clusterability: how well a network can be divided into groups of neurons…
We focus on the robustness of neural networks for classification. To permit a fair comparison between methods to achieve robustness, we first introduce a standard based on the mensuration of a classifier's degradation. Then, we propose…
We propose a method for learning a quantum probabilistic model of a perceptron. By considering a cross entropy between two density matrices we can learn a model that takes noisy output labels into account while learning. A multitude of…
Hebbian learning is a key principle underlying learning in biological neural networks. We relate a Hebbian spike-timing-dependent plasticity rule to noisy gradient descent with respect to a non-convex loss function on the probability…
We investigate dense higher-order associative memories in the high storage regime when the stored patterns are biased, namely when the entries of the patterns are not symmetrically distributed around zero. In this setting, the standard…
Inference algorithms based on evolving interactions between replicated solutions are introduced and analyzed on a prototypical NP-hard problem - the capacity of the binary Ising perceptron. The efficiency of the algorithm is examined…
We present nonlinear photonic circuit models for constructing programmable linear transformations and use these to realize a coherent Perceptron, i.e., an all-optical linear classifier capable of learning the classification boundary…
A sequential training method for large-scale feedforward neural networks is presented. Each layer of the neural network is decoupled and trained separately. After the training is completed for each layer, they are combined together. The…
A recurrent neural net is described that learns a set of patterns in the presence of noise. The learning rule is of Hebbian type, and, if noise would be absent during the learning process, the resulting final values of the weights would…
A popular theory of perceptual processing holds that the brain learns both a generative model of the world and a paired recognition model using variational Bayesian inference. Most hypotheses of how the brain might learn these models assume…
Sequence memory is an essential attribute of natural and artificial intelligence that enables agents to encode, store, and retrieve complex sequences of stimuli and actions. Computational models of sequence memory have been proposed where…
In training neural networks, it is common practice to use partial gradients computed over batches, mostly very small subsets of the training set. This approach is motivated by the argument that such a partial gradient is close to the true…
