Abstract

Since the standard error backpropagation algorithm for supervised learning was shown biologically implausible, alternative models of training that use only local activation variables have been proposed. In this paper we present a novel algorithm called UBAL, inspired by the GeneRec model. We shortly describe the model and show the performance of the algorithm for XOR and 4-2-4 problems.
