A connectionist model for category perception: theory and implementation

TLDR
A connectionist model for learning and recognizing objects (or object classes) is presented and the theory of learning is developed based on some probabilistic measures.
Abstract
A connectionist model for learning and recognizing objects (or object classes) is presented. The learning and recognition system uses confidence values for the presence of a feature. The network can recognize multiple objects simultaneously when the corresponding overlapped feature train is presented at the input. An error function is defined, and it is minimized for obtaining the optimal set of object classes. The model is capable of learning each individual object in the supervised mode. The theory of learning is developed based on some probabilistic measures. Experimental results are presented. The model can be applied for the detection of multiple objects occluding each other. >

A massively parallel architecture for a self-organizing neural pattern recognition machine

TL;DR: A neural network architecture for the learning of recognition categories is derived which circumvents the noise, saturation, capacity, orthogonality, and linear predictability constraints that limit the codes which can be stably learned by alternative recognition models.

Distinctive Features, Categorical Perception, and Probability Learning: Some Applications of a Neural Model.

TL;DR: In this article, a model for memory based on neurophysiolo gical considerations is reviewed, where neurons associate two patterns of neural activity by incrementing synaptic connectivity proportionally to the product of pre-and postsynaptic activity, forming a matrix of synaptic connectivities.
