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. 3, record 1, English, - Hebbian%20learning

A number of different variants trace their ancestry back to Hebb. Perhaps the simplest version is: When unit A and unit B are simultaneously excited, increase the strength of the connection between them. A natural extension of this rule to cover the positive and negative activation values is: Adjust the strength of the connection between units A and B in proportion to the product of their simultaneous activation. For simplicity of reference, we will call this the Hebb rule. 1, record 3, English, - Hebb%20rule

La règle de Hebb est le premier mécanisme d'évolution proposé pour les synapses. Son interprétation pour les réseaux de neurones formels est la suivante : on considère que si deux neurones connectés entre eux sont activés au même moment, la connexion qui les relie doit être renforcée. Dans les cas contraires, elle n'est pas modifiée. 2, record 3, French, - r%C3%A8gle%20de%20Hebb
