Is Competitive Learning an Adequate Account of Free
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Rumelhart & Zipser's (1986) competitive learning algorithm is an account of unsupcrvised learning and, as such, might be considered a potential model of free classification behavior in humans. However, selective learning effects (e.g. Dickinson, Shanks & Evenden, 1984) suggest that human learning, ai least under conditions of feedback, may be better characterized by an error-correcting system. An experiment is reported that provides preliminary evidence for the existence of a selective learning effect in free classification. Simulations indicate that Rumelhart & Zipser's algorithm does not provide an adequate account of the behavior observed, whilst an error-correcting variant of competitive learning does.

Introduction: Feedback is an inseparable and integral part of learning. It promotes students' learning towards achieving goals. In the training of health professions, little feedback or a paucity of feedback can be observed. Giving correct feedback is another important matter that must be taken into account. Therefore, the aim of this study was to present the principles of feedback, its effecti...
