Operators and Curried Functions: Training and Analysis of Simple Recurrent Networks

Abstract

We present a framework for programming tbe bidden unit representations of simple recurrent networks based on the use of hint units (additional targets at the output layer). We present two ways of analysing a network trained within this framework: Input patterns act as operators on the information encoded by the context units; symmetrically, patterns of activation over tbe context units act as curried functions of the input sequences. Simulations demonstrate that a network can learn to represent three different functions simultaneously and canonical discriminant analysis is used to investigate bow operators and curried functions are represented in the space of bidden unit activations.
