English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
DEF

An equation that modifies all or some of the adaptive coefficients(weights) in a processing element's local memory in response to input signals and the values supplied by the transfer function. The equation enables the network to adapt itself to examples of what it should be doing and to organize information within itself, and thereby learn.

CONT

Any one of a wide range of weight-changing rules could be used to adjust the weights of the active inputs when a dynamic link was formed.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Intelligence artificielle
DEF

Procédure locale qui décrit comment les poids des connexions varient en fonction du temps.

CONT

[...] les «lois de l'apprentissage» doivent mettre en lumière comment les structures intellectuelles s'élaborent l'une à partir de l'autre et comment, dans ce processus, elles acquièrent leur forme, à la fois logique et émotionnelle.
