Linear function neurons: Structure and training (Q1070193): Difference between revisions

Three different representations for a thresholded linear equation are developed. For binary input they are shown to be representationally equivalent though their training characteristics differ. A training algorithm for linear equations is discussed. The similarities between its simplest mathematical representation (perceptron training), a formal model of animal learning (Rescorla-Wagner learning), and one mechanism of neural learning (Aplysia gill withdrawal) are pointed out.
