A new method for training a feedforward neural net model is introduced. The method encompasses elements of both supervised and unsupervised learning. The development of internal representations is no more an issue tangential to the curve fitting objectives of the other known supervised learning methods. Curve fitting remains as a primary objective but unsupervised learning techniques are also used in order to aid the development of internal representations. The net structure is incrementally formed, thus allowing the formation of a structure of reduced nonlinearity.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":371778,"journal":{"name":"[Proceedings] Third International Conference on Tools for Artificial Intelligence - TAI 91","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131826765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The goal is to improve problem solving time by experience, when that experience monotonically adds knowledge to the knowledge base. Accumulating and exploiting experience are done by the schemes of knowledge migration and knowledge shadowing. Knowledge migration generates specific (migrated) rules from general (migrating) rules and accumulates deduction experience represented by specificity relationships between migrating and migrated rules. Knowledge shadowing recognizes rule redundancies during a deduction and prunes deduction branches activated from redundant rules. Three principles for knowledge shadowing are suggested, depending on the details of deduction experience representation.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":371778,"journal":{"name":"[Proceedings] Third International Conference on Tools for Artificial Intelligence - TAI 91","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133601471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
