Title: A Local Learning Algorithm for Dynamic Feedforward and Recurrent Networks Abstract: Most known learning algorithms for dynamic neural networks in non-stationary environments need global computations to perform credit assignment. These algorithms either are not local in time or not local in space. Those algorit...

Title: Learning Switching Concepts Abstract: We consider learning in situations where the function used to classify examples may switch back and forth between a small number of different concepts during the course of learning. We examine several models for such situations: oblivious models in which switches are made ...
