Abstract

Multilayer perceptrons are learning structures often used in the connectionist approach. A backpropagation algorithm, which enables learning, is a fixed point research algorithm. As such, it induces the various behaviours of chaotic dynamics. One can apply to it the tools of chaos theory. Amongst the useable tools, a measurement of behaviour, or more precisely stability, exists, namely Lyapunov numbers. The obtaining of these numbers comes through awareness of the eigen values of the jacobian matrix associated to the weight modification functions. We give a method of calculation whose efficiency comes from the use of the particularities of the backpropagation. From the calculation of the Lyapunov numbers, the basic backpropagation algorithm is modified. We propose the first part of a new learning algorithm whose originality resides in a strategy of gradient step constraint, arising from the obligation of a stable behaviour. Its values is related to obtaining rapid convergence.
