Abstract
Training a neural network that comprises nodes and weighted connections between selected ones of the nodes is described herein. A function of a desired activity and a current activity during training results in a feedback signal used for adjusting weight values of the connections. For a weight value update cycle the process determines an importance value for various nodes based on current weight values of the connections and determines an adjustment of the feedback signal specific for each weight value of the connections by a combination of a gradient value derived from the feedback signal for a connection and the determined corresponding element of the adjustment matrix. The updates are applied to the connections during update cycles.
