Title
Activation functions, computational goals, and learning rules for local processors with contextual guidance
Abstract
Information about context can enable local processors to discover latent variablesthat are relevant to the context within which they occur, and it can alsoguide short-term processing. For example, Becker and Hinton(1992) have shownhow context can guide learning, and Hummel and Biederman(1992) have shownhow it can guide processing in a large neural net for object recognition. Thispaper therefore studies the basic capabilities of a local processor with two distinctclasses of inputs :...
