Abstract:
This paper presents a self-organizing architecture made of several maps, implementing a recurrent neural network to cope with partial observations of the phase of some dynamical system. The purpose of self-organization is to set up a distributed representation of the actual phase, although the observations received from the system are ambiguous (i.e. the same observation may correspond to distinct phases). The setting up of such a representation is illustrated by experiments, and then the paper concludes on extensions toward adaptive state representations for partially observable Markovian decision processes.
