Abstract

An exploratory study of learning a neural network for categorisation shows that commonly used leaky integrate and fire neurons and Hebbian learning can be effective. The system learns with a standard spike timing dependent plasticity Hebbian learning rule. A two layer feed forward topology is used with a presentation mechanism of inputs followed by outputs a simulated ms. later to learn Iris flower and Breast Cancer Tumour Malignancy categorisers. An exploration of parameters indicates how this may be applied to other tasks.
