Bidirectional Associative Memory and Learning of Nonlinearly Separable Tasks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Research has shown that human beings are able to perform various associations, whether linearly separable or nonlinearly separable, with little effort. While bidirectional associative memory (BAM) models show great promise in modeling various types of associations the humans perform, they still have difficulties with solving various types of nonlinearly separable problems. The present study introduces a modification of the architecture of a given type of BAM by adding an unsupervised pathway to the original BAM structure. Results showed that the modification allows the network to perform nonlinearly separable associations such as the n-bit parity task and the double-moon problem. The network is able to associate more difficult types of problems while keeping the same learning and transmission function. This study could lead to enhanced cognitive models capable of modeling a wider set of associations.

متن کاملAssociative Memory Using Dictionary Learning and Expander Decoding
An associative memory is a framework of content-addressable memory that stores a collection of message vectors (or a dataset) over a neural network while enabling a neurally feasible mechanism to recover any message in the dataset from its noisy version. Designing an associative memory requires addressing two main tasks: 1) learning phase: given a dataset, learn a concise representation of the ...
متن کاملLearning nonlinearly separable categories by inference and classification.
Previous research suggests that learning categories by classifying new instances highlights information that is useful for discriminating between categories. In contrast, learning categories by making predictive inferences focuses learners on an abstract summary of each category (e.g., the prototype). To test this characterization of classification and inference learning further, the authors ev...
متن کاملPerforming Complex Associations Using a Feature-Extracting Bidirectional Associative Memory
Learning in Bidirectional Associative Memory (BAM) is typically based on Hebbian type learning. Since Kosko’s paper on BAM in late 80s many improvements have been proposed. However, none of the proposed modifications allowed BAM to perform complex associative tasks that combine many to one with one to many associations. Even though BAMs are often deemed more plausible biologically, if they are ...
متن کاملLearning to update Auto-associative Memory in Recurrent Neural Networks for Improving Sequence Memorization
Learning to remember long sequences remains a challenging task for recurrent neural networks. Register memory and attention mechanisms were both proposed to resolve the issue with either high computational cost to retain memory differentiability, or by discounting the RNN representation learning towards encoding shorter local contexts than encouraging long sequence encoding. Associative memory,...
