How Important is Weight Symmetry in Backpropagation?
Liao, Qianli; Leibo, Joel Z.; Poggio, Tomaso (Center for Brains, Minds and Machines (CBMM), arXiv, 2015-11-29)Gradient backpropagation (BP) requires symmetric feedforward and feedback connections—the same weights must be used for forward and backward passes. This “weight transport problem” [1] is thought to be one of the main ... -
View-tolerant face recognition and Hebbian learning imply mirror-symmetric neural tuning to head orientation
Leibo, Joel Z.; Liao, Qianli; Freiwald, Winrich; Anselmi, Fabio; Poggio, Tomaso (Center for Brains, Minds and Machines (CBMM), arXiv, 2016-06-03)The primate brain contains a hierarchy of visual areas, dubbed the ventral stream, which rapidly computes object representations that are both specific for object identity and relatively robust against identity-preserving ...
