Abstract：
:We propose a new multilayered neural network model which has the ability of rapid self-organization. This model is a modified version of the cognitron (Fukushima, 1975). It has modifiable inhibitory feedback connections, as well as conventional modifiable excitatory feedforward connections, between the cells of adjoining layers. If a feature-extracting cell in the network is excited by a stimulus which is already familiar to the network, the cell immediately feeds back inhibitory signals to its presynaptic cells in the preceding layer, which suppresses their response. On the other hand, the feature-extracting cell does not respond to an unfamiliar feature, and the responses from its presynaptic cells are therefore not suppressed because they do not receive any feedback inhibition. Modifiable synapses in the new network are reinforced in a way similar to those in the cognitron, and synaptic connections from cells yielding a large sustained output are reinforced. Since familiar stimulus features do not elicit a sustained response from the cells of the network, only circuits which detect novel stimulus features develop. The network therefore quickly acquires favorable pattern-selectivity by the mere repetitive presentation of a set of learning patterns.
