7 The Backpropagation Algorithm 7.1 Learning as gradient descent We saw in the last chapter that multilayered networks are capable of com- puting a wider range of Boolean functions than networks with a single layer of computing units. However the computational effort needed for finding the correct combination of weights increases substantially when more parameters and more complicated topologies are considered. In this chapter we discuss a popular learning method capable of handling such large learning problems — the backpropagation algorithm. This numerical method w
