Learning Statistically Neutral Tasks without Expert Guidance

Neural Information Processing Systems

He intended to build a model mimicking the behavior of the autistic savant without the need either to develop arithmetical skills or to encode explicit knowledge about regularities in the structure of dates. A standard multilayer network trained with backpropagation [6] was not able to solve the date-calculation task. Although the network was able to learn the examples used for training, it did not manage to generalize to novel date-day combinations.
