Limitations of backpropagation learning • 1. Requires a supervisor to train the system. • 2. Does not allow feedback from the output layer to the input layer. (Networks with loops are called recurrent networks.) • 3. Requires very large number of trials to train the network effectively - no one-trial learning. • 4. Not biologically plausible: real neurons lack connections to do backpropagation. CSE 573
Hebbian Learning When an axon of cell A is near enough to excite a cell B and repeatedly or persistently takes part in firing it, some growth process or metabolic change takes place in one or both cells such that A's efficiency, as one of the cells firing B, is increased (Hebb 1949) CSE 573
Features of Hebbian Learning • Unsupervised • Most successful applications: • pattern recognition • image compression • Must add some way to prevent weights from growing without bounds – e.g., decay • Can use in networks with feedback loops • Mathematics closely related to principle components analysis – clustering CSE 573
