Simulations of the Green's function and the cavity activation distributions support the theory well. The learning dynamics approaches a steady state in agreement with the static version of the cavity method. The picture of the rough energy landscape is reviewed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-06-15T11:38:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "mean-field theory", "cavity activation distributions support", "cavity method", "rough energy landscape", "steady state" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000cond.mat..6251W" } } }
