[PDP-discuss] Using input layer for both input and target?

[Frank Leoné]

Hi all,

I can teach the network to use an input layer as target during the same 
trial with the settings previously suggested (two scripts to set the hard 
clamp and min, plus + nothing). But, if I then add two other input layers, 
which are not meant to be also used as targets, the error rises far slower. 
Even if the layers are not connected to the hidden layer and other input 
layers. If I add a recurrent connection between them and the hidden layer, 
it seems to work better, so it seems it also tries to learn these two 
layers. How can I stop that? I want these input layers not to function 
different from the normal situation.

And if want to use the same layer as target later on in the same trial or 
another layer only as target at the same time, can I then still use the same 
settings? It seems so, but just to be sure.

Thanks in advance,

      kind regards,

           Frank
