TI - Neural model of transfer-of-binding in visual relative motion perception. Y1 - 1998/01// N2 - A new way of measuring generalization in unsupervised learning is presented. The measure is based on an exclusive allocation, or credit assignment, criterion. In a classifier that satisfies the criterion, input patterns are parsed so that the credit for each input feature is assigned exclusively to one of multiple, possibly overlapping, output categories. Such a classifier achieves context-sensitive, global representations of pattern data. Two additional constraints, sequence masking and uncertainty multiplexing, are described; these can be used to refine the measure of generalization. The generalization performance of EXIN networks, winner-take-all competitive learning networks, linear decorrelator networks, and Nigrin's SONNET-2 network is compared. AV - public ER -
