Geoffrey Hinton, professor at the University of Toronto and engineering fellow at Google Brain, recently published a paper on the Forward-Forward algorithm (FF), a technique for training neural networ ...

Using an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm called reservoir computing, combined with another algorithm called backpropagation, the team developed a neuro-inspired analog computer that can ...

The backpropagation algorithm, which is based on the derivation of a cost function, is used to optimize the connecting weights, but neural networks have a lot of other knobs to turn.

A new technical paper titled “Hardware implementation of backpropagation using progressive gradient descent for in situ training of multilayer neural networks” was published by researchers at ...

Neural networks using the backpropagation algorithm were biologically “unrealistic in almost every respect” he said. For one thing, neurons mostly send information in one direction.
