We investigate the generalization ability of a perceptron with non-monotonic transfer function of a reversed-wedge type in on-line mode. This network is identical to a parity machine, a multilayer network. We consider several learning algorithms. By the perceptron algorithm the generalization error is shown to decrease...

Dynamical properties of the hypercell spin glass model
cond-mat.dis-nn
The spreading of damage technique is used to study the sensibility to initial conditions in a heath bath Monte Carlo simulation of the spin glass hypercubic cell model. Since the hypercubic cell in dimension 2D and the hypercubic lattice in dimension D resemble each other closely at finite dimensions and both converge ...

Dimensional Crossover of Weak Localization in a Magnetic Field
cond-mat.dis-nn
We study the dimensional crossover of weak localization in strongly anisotropic systems. This crossover from three-dimensional behavior to an effective lower dimensional system is triggered by increasing temperature if the phase coherence length gets shorter than the lattice spacing $a$. A similar effect occurs in a ma...

Statistical Mechanical Analysis of the Dynamics of Learning in Perceptrons
cond-mat.dis-nn
We describe the application of tools from statistical mechanics to analyse the dynamics of various classes of supervised learning rules in perceptrons. The character of this paper is mostly that of a cross between a biased non-encyclopedic review and lecture notes: we try to present a coherent and self-contained pictur...

Bounds on learning in polynomial time
cond-mat.dis-nn
The performance of large neural networks can be judged not only by their storage capacity but also by the time required for learning. A polynomial learning algorithm with learning time $\sim N^2$ in a network with $N$ units might be practical whereas a learning time $\sim e^N$ would allow rather small networks only. Th...

Scaling of the Random-Field Ising Model at Zero Temperature
cond-mat.dis-nn
The exact determination of ground states of small systems is used in a scaling study of the random-field Ising model. While three variants of the model are found to be in the same universality class in 3 dimensions, the Gaussian and bimodal models behave distinctly in 4 dimensions with the latter apparently having a di...

Functional Optimisation of Online Algorithms in Multilayer Neural Networks
cond-mat.dis-nn
We study the online dynamics of learning in fully connected soft committee machines in the student-teacher scenario. The locally optimal modulation function, which determines the learning algorithm, is obtained from a variational argument in such a manner as to maximise the average generalisation error decay per exampl...

An investigation of the hidden structure of states in a mean field spin glass model
cond-mat.dis-nn
We study the geometrical structure of the states in the low temperature phase of a mean field model for generalized spin glasses, the p-spin spherical model. This structure cannot be revealed by the standard methods, mainly due to the presence of an exponentially high number of states, each one having a vanishing weigh...

Dynamical heterogeneities in a supercooled Lennard-Jones liquid
cond-mat.dis-nn
We present the results of a large scale molecular dynamics computer simulation study in which we investigate whether a supercooled Lennard-Jones liquid exhibits dynamical heterogeneities. We evaluate the non-Gaussian parameter for the self part of the van Hove correlation function and use it to identify ``mobile'' part...

Metastates in the Hopfield model in the replica symmetric regime
cond-mat.dis-nn
We study the finite dimensional marginals of the Gibbs measure in the Hopfield model at low temperature when the number of patterns, $M$, is proportional to the volume with a sufficiently small proportionality constant $\a>0$. It is shown that even when a single pattern is selected (by a magnetic field or by conditioni...

Low-frequency Raman scattering in model disordered solids: percolators above threshold
cond-mat.dis-nn
The Raman coupling coefficients of site- and bond-percolators at concentration higher than percolation threshold are computed for two scattering mechanisms: Bond Polarizability (BPOL) and Dipole-Induced-Dipole (DID). The results show that DID does not follow a scaling law at low frequency, while in the case of BPOL the...

Quantum phase transition in spin glasses with multi-spin interactions
cond-mat.dis-nn
We examine the phase diagram of the $p$-interaction spin glass model in a transverse field. We consider a spherical version of the model and compare with results obtained in the Ising case. The analysis of the spherical model, with and without quantization, reveals a phase diagram very similar to that obtained in the I...

The two-dimensional Anderson model of localization with random hopping

We examine the localization properties of the 2D Anderson Hamiltonian with off-diagonal disorder. Investigating the behavior of the participation numbers of eigenstates as well as studying their multifractal properties, we find states in the center of the band which show critical behavior up to the system size $N= 200 ...

String-like Clusters and Cooperative Motion in a Model Glass-Forming Liquid

A large-scale molecular dynamics simulation is performed on a glass-forming Lennard-Jones mixture to determine the nature of dynamical heterogeneities which arise in this model fragile liquid. We observe that the most mobile particles exhibit a cooperative motion in the form of string-like paths (``strings'') whose mea...

We consider the scattering by a one-dimensional random potential and derive the probability distribution of the corresponding Wigner time delay. It is shown that the limiting distribution is the same for two different models and coincides with the one predicted by random matrix theory. It is also shown that the corresp...

Universality Classes for Extreme Value Statistics
cond-mat.dis-nn
The low temperature physics of disordered systems is governed by the statistics of extremely low energy states. It is thus rather important to discuss the possible universality classes for extreme value statistics. We compare the usual probabilistic classification to the results of the replica approach. We show in deta...
