Abstract

Results obtained by Pineda for supervised learning in arbitrarily structured neural nets (including feed-back) are extended to nonsupervised learning. For the first time a unique set of 3 equations is derived which governs the learning dynamics of neural models that make use of objective functions. A general method to construct objective functions is outlined that helps organize the network output according to application-specific constraints. Several well-known learning algorithms are deduced exemplarily within the general frame. The unification turns out to result in economical design of software as well as hardware.
