A nonlinear learning network model for continuous

Abstract A nonlinear network model with continuous learning capability is described. The dynamically capacity allocating (DCA) network model is able to learn incrementally as more information becomes available and to avoid the spatially unselective forgetting of commonly used learning algorithms. The DCA networks are an extension of kernel estimation methods with a learning algorithm that selects automatically the number of necessary basis functions in the model. This learning algorithm is a fast noniterative method and therefore it is suitable for large scale implementations of continuously learning systems even on conventional computer hardware.
