Abstract

Isotropic Sequence Order learning (ISO-learning) and Input Correlation Only learning (ICO-learning) are unsupervised neural algorithms to learn temporal differences. The use of devices implementing this algorithms by simulation in reactive neural networks is proposed. We have applied several modifications to original rules: weights sign restriction, to adequate ISO-learning and ICO-learning devices outputs to the usually predefined kinds of connections (excitatory/inhibitory) used in neural networks, and decay term inclusion for weights stabilization. Original experiments with these algorithms are replicated as accurate as possible with a simulated robot and a discretization of the algorithms. Results are similar to those obtained in original experiments with analogue devices.
