Subject: Conjugate Gradient Methods
From: tedwards@cmsun.nrl.navy.mil (Thomas Edwards)

In my research into neural methods on a massively parallel SIMD machine, I
came across an article ("Efficient Parallel Learning Algorithms for Neural
Networks" Kramer, Sangiovanni-Vincentelli) which had a comparison of neural
techniques on the Connection Machine.
What first struck me was how much faster Conjugate Gradient methods reached
the proper answer in comparison to "vanilla" Back Propogation methods. C-G
methods were often an order of magnitude faster than Steepest Descent, and
several orders of magnitude faster than Backprop for large learning
problems.
If we examine the strategy of Backprop vs. C-G, we can see why the C-G
methods are clearly superior (see _Numerical_Recipes_). However, there
seems to be a dearth of articles which describe in detail how to set up
neural systems using C-G.
The article I mentioned discusses C-G implementation to a point. It
describes how to obtain the proper direction of search based upon the
gradient and past search directions, but does not describe the line
minimization of the function in the search direction in detail.
Maybe I have just had bad luck with finding articles on this subject, but it
seems to me that if we had more Connectionists skilled in the C-G methods,
we would all benefit. Is there, somewhere out there, an article with a rich
description of C-G Neural Network implementation?

The Learning Systems Division at the Research Institute for Advanced
Computer Science (RIACS), an Institute of the Universities Space Research
Association, is dedicated to applying the theory of Sparse Distributed
Memory (SDM) developed by Pentti Kanerva to a wide range of applications
(Speech, Vision, Robotics). SDM is a 3-layer neural network with certain
constraints that make it unneccessary to use back-propogation for training
weights. The constraints are that the input and output patterns are binary
vectors and that the connections strengths between the first and second
layers are fixed but randomly chosen. The size of the patterns (number of
nodes in the first and third layers) is large, e.g. 256 to 1,000 bits. The
size of the hidden layer is even larger, e.g. 8,000 and up. When operating
under these conditions the NN behaves as a memory which can approximate
"table lookups" with generalization. The standard SDM model modifies its
weights in a 1-step process, simply incrementing or decrementing the weights
between the second and third layers depending upon (1) whether a node in the
second layer has been activated and (2) whether a bit in the desired output
pattern is on or off. See Kanerva, P. 1988, "Sparse Distributed Memory".
Cambridge, MA. MIT Press.
I plan to present a paper (if I can get there!) at the '89 NIPS Denver
conference describing how the standard SDM model can be modified to yield
perfect recall. Note, however, that when one does this the neural net
looses any ability to generalize. There is an uncertainty principle for any
NN between memory capacity and the generalizability of the net. The rule
for obtaining perfect recall can be written down analytically and, indeed,
is the solution to the inverse of a matrix. The rule can be expressed as an
algorithm stating how to modify the weights in a 1-step process. The
manuscript for this work is in progress. I hope this helps.

Ok, I retrieved RCS, it works great on my Sun. I got it to compile and run
on my Cray.
Now what do I do? Do any of you out there have sample/example code I could
run/test? I'd like to learn about NN's, I've retrieved several of the back
issues of the Digest, and will be looking up the references. I'm mainly
interested in applying NN's to language and AI work. Is this feasible? Are
there specific references in this area?

Subject: IJCNN89
From: dporcino@sol.UVic.ca
Date: 02 Aug 89 16:34:00 -0700
A number of points struck me as indicating future research directions
and trends in neurocomputing:
- Solutions to the local minima problem of back propagation.
eg: introducing a noise component, ala simulated annealing
- Solutions to the question of how many hidden units should be used.
eg: start with two hidden units, backprop until error becomes less
than some threshold, add another hidden unit, backprop, add,
backprop, etc., until finally the last neuron offers no advantage.
It's claimed that this method avoids local minimums.
Ref is??? (It was a poster session, and I don't have my proceedings
near by...)
- Chaos came up repeatedly in any number of different sessions.
"I think this is a chaotic limit cycle."
"It looks like Freeman's olfactory models."
"I think chaos actually CREATES new information."
- In a similar vein, Fractals also came up.
eg: Grossberg's masking fields have a self-similar architecture
Pellionisz's neuron growth models
- The tools being developed for these two fields will probably become
more and more important as time goes on.
- There was a much greater emphasis on practical applications, and some
of the really amazing results are and will be those that replace more
traditional control approaches and inverse kinematics.
- More and more application of real neuroscience to models and applications:
eg: Beer et al, and their walking cockroach, based on the hypothetical
model that appeared in Scientific American, Dec.1976, Pearson (I
think it was) "The Control of Walking."
- The most impressive things to me were the feeling that "BackProp will
solve anything, even though there might be a nicer way to solve a
particular problem," and the pervasiveness of "chaos."
I wonder if Back Propagation and Hopfield nets might provide a new set of
Fundamentals for Sixth Generation Computing - sort of like Computer
Science's Turing Machines which can solve anything computable, but
not necessarily nicely. This would point the way to some benchmarks,
and some rigourous proofs about neural-computability...

Hi,
I am trying to make a list of people working in Neural Nets for
manufacturing, as that is my field of interest. I would like you to put
this letter in the neuron digest, and anywhere else that you think it might
get read by researchers everywhere.
If anyone reading this letter is interested in getting their name on this
list, they are welcome to send me their name. I would appreciate if they
included in the mail a topic, their univ/company/research lab/..., a
paragraph describing their research interests, and any thing they think
would be useful for compiling this list. If they wish to enclose a detailed
research plan, that is also welcome.
After this list is compiled, I will send it to each person, and also post it

Hi,
I am urgently in need of an article in which Goles and Vichiniac showed that
the Marr-Poggio stereo algorithm can be cast in terms of an optimization
problem and in which they gave an expression for the objective function.
The reference to this article reads as follows:
E. Goles & G.Y. Vichniac, Proc. Neural Networks for Computing,
Snowbird UT, AIP Conf. Proc. 151, 165 (1986).
This article was referenced in an artice by Arthur F. Gmitro and Gene R.
Gindi which I found in the I.E.E.E conf. proceedings of the Int. Conf. on
Neural Networks, 1987. These authors wok at the Department of Diagnostic
Radiology, Yale University, New Haven.
To obtain this article through the usual way would take me several weeks,
which is just too long in this case.
Is there anybody out there who either can send me a copy of this article or
give me the E-mail adress of one of the persons mentioned above?
I would appreciate this very much!

Performance Data Requested on Network Scaling
For a review and technology assessment paper I am writing on
scaling issues, I would appreciate receiving pointers to
published or unpublished experimental data on the scaling
behavior of different neural network architectures for dif-
ferent problems. That is, performance such as training
time, probability of successful convergence, number of exam-
ples required to learn, performance on training set, and
generalization ability, as a function of the complexity of
the problem (and scale of network required to solve it).
I am interested in data for back propagation and recurrent
back propagation as well as other paradigms, including
Kohonen networks, adaptive resonance theory networks, Res-
tricted Coulomb Energy networks, etc. Thank you.

I am working on the topic of Optimal Control of Manufacturing/Production
Systems subject to disturbances (machine failures, etc.). Having a pure
Mechanical Engineering background, I am fairly oblivious of the details
of Neural Nets. However, the little I have read about NNs, suggests its
applicability to Control of Continuous Processes (Chemical Plants, etc.).
I would highly appreciate your comments on the applicability of NNs to
the domain of Discrete and Stochastic Control; specifically the field
of Optimal Control of Manufacturing Systems (Planning, Scheduling, and
real-time control). References to the indicated topic will also be
appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Subject: Questions about delta rule
From: "Ajay M. Patrikar" <killer!pollux!amp@AMES.ARC.NASA.GOV>
Organization: Department of Electrical Engineering; S.M.U.; Dallas, TX
Date: 23 Jun 89 06:44:10 +0000
I was trying to solve different problems mentioned in the following
reference :
D.E.Rumelhart, G.E. Hinton, and R.J.Williams, "Learning Internal
Representation by Error Propogation" in Parallel Distributed Processing :
Explorations in the microstructure of cognition. vol. 1, MIT press 1986
I used backpropogation algorithm for solving problems such as Exclusive OR ,
parity problem etc. In most cases I got different convergence rates from the
ones mentioned in the book. Also, quite a few times the program ran into
local minima problem.
This may be because of altogather different initial conditions. I was
generating random numbers in the interval (-0.5, 0.5) and using them as
initial weights and thresholds.
Has anyone on the net ran into similar problems ? I would appreciate if
someone can pass me information about
1. dependence of convergence rate on initial conditions
2. What is the general criterion for convergence.
3. performance of backpropogation on bigger problems.(no. of pattern
presentations)
Thanking you in advance.
