[comp.ai.neural-nets] Learning of Temporal Patterns with Neural Networks

guy@kcl-cs.UUCP (YUG) (03/19/90)

Does anyone out there have any information on learning of temporal patterns
with neural networks? The only reference I currently have is :-

Neural Networks that learn temporal sequences by selection
        S.Dehaene et al
        Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. Vol.84 May 1987 pp2727-2731

Any further references would be greatly appreciated.

Nature  it  seems  decrees  that  waves  should  reach  their  greatest stature
of  power  and  beauty   barely   an   instant   before   their   annihilation.

I presented some work at the 1987 NIPS conference in Denver (American
Institute of Physics), titled "Temporal Patterns of Activity in Neural
Networks." While the results left a lot to be desired due to a
numerical error, the bibliography has some good references I report
below. Also, the same volue has articles by A.  Robinson & F. Fallside
("Static and dynamic error propagation networks with application to
speech coding"), W. S.  Stornetta ("A Dynamical Approach to Temporal
Pattern Processing"), and T. Homma et al. ("An artificial neural
network for spatiotemporal bipolar patterns: Application to phoneme
classification").

recognition in the rabbit olfactory bulb". Physica 22D, 150-175. 1986.

sequential machine". Proceedings of the Eighth annual conference of
the cognitive sciences society. 1986.

neural networks". Phys. Rev. Let. 57: 2861-2864. 1986.


Prior to that there is also some interesting work by Grossberg, that
is distributed over a number of papers and under many headings. A good
overview is;

[5] S. Grosberg, "The adaptive self-organization of serial order in
behavior: speech, language, and motor control." Reprinted as ch. 6 in
'The adaptive Brain II'. Amsterdam:Elsevier/North-Holland. 1986.

A more recent model is:

[6] S. Grossberg, N. Schmajuk "Neural dynamics of adaptive timing and
temporal discrimination during associative learning". Neural Networks.
V. 2 (2). 79-102. 1989.

Hope this is useful to other people as well.

Here's some references from a tutorial I attended during the WNN-AIND
1990 workshop.

Grossberg, Stephen.  "Some networks can learn, remember, and reproduce
any number of complicated space-time patterns", Journal of Math. and
Mechanics #19, pp. 53-91, 196?. (unsure of the year)

Hecht-Nielsen.  "Nearest matched filter classification of
spatio-temporal patterns", Applied Optics #26, pp. 1892-1899, 1987.

Ito and Fukushima.  "Recognition of spatio-temporal patterns with a
hierarchical neural network", Proc. of IJCNN 1990 #1, pp. 273-276,
1990.

Fukushima.  "Spatio-temporal vs. spatial pattern recognition by
neocognitron", Proc. of IJCNN 90 #2, pp. 279-282, 1990.

Waibel, Hanazawa, Hinton, Shikano, and Lang.  "Phoneme recognition
using time-delay neural networks", IEEE Trans. ASSP #37, pp. 328-339,
1989.

Hope this is actually what you're after.  Note that I'm not
particularly interested in the above references--I just recalled
running across them in the tutorial.

Good luck,
