WEIGHT CONNECTION [16 records]

Record 1 2024-03-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
DEF

Learning that increases the connection weight of a neural connection if the two artificial neurons are activated synchronously and decreases the connection weight if the neurons are activated asynchronously.

CONT

Weight change between two units depends on the frequency of both units having positive output simultaneously. This form of weight change is called Hebbian learning, which provides a simple mathematical model for synaptic modification in biological networks.

OBS

Hebbian learning: designation and definition standardized by ISO and the International Electrotechnical Commission.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Nervous System
  • Simulation (Cybernetic Systems)
CONT

We need to change each weight by an amount that is proportional to the rate at which the error changes as the weight is changed. This quantity-called the error derivative for the weight, or simply the EW-is tricky to compute efficiently. One way to calculate the EW is to perturb a weight slightly and observe how the error changes.... Once the EA has been computed for a unit, it is straight-forward to compute the EW for each incoming connection of the unit. The EW is the product of the EA and the activity through the incoming connection.

Une fois que les dérivées du coût par rapport à l'activité sont connues pour un neurone, on calcule facilement la dérivée du coût par rapport au coefficient synaptique de chaque connexion arrivant sur ce neurone : c'est le produit de la dérivée en fonction de l'activité par l'activité propagée par la connexion considérée.

Fabric Forms for Pile Jacketing.... All piles in a marine environment suffer deterioration at varying rates.... General Methods of Repair. The methods used for rehabilitation of piles are varied and constantly increasing in number.... In the 1960s a technique was developed that utilizes construction fabrics as a concrete-forming system. Basically this concept uses as a concrete from a jacket of woven nylon fabric, each end of which is connected by a heavy industrial zipper sewn onto the fabric. The ends of the fabric above and below the deterioriated pile zone are banded to the pile. These fabric forms have proven economic advantages over other concrete forming systems because of their light weight, ease of intallation, relatively low fabric cost, and ease of connection onto the piles at any location above the mudline.
