• Abstract: The back-propagation algorithm has long been the de-facto standard in optimizing weights and biases in neural networks, particularly in cutting-edge deep learning models. Its widespread adoption in fields like natural language processing, computer vision, and remote sensing has revolutionized automation in various tasks. The popularity of back-propagation stems from its ability to achieve outstanding performance in tasks such as classification, detection, and segmentation. Nevertheless, back-propagation is not without its limitations, encompassing sensitivity to initial conditions, vanishing gradients, overfitting, and computational complexity. The recent introduction of a forward-forward algorithm (FFA), which computes local goodness functions to optimize network parameters, alleviates the dependence on substantial computational resources and the constant need for architectural scaling. This study investigates the application of FFA for hyperspectral image classification. Experimental results and comparative analysis are provided with the use of the traditional back-propagation algorithm. Preliminary results show the potential behind FFA and its promises.

  We propose a new learning framework for neural networks, namely Cascaded Forward (CaFo) algorithm, which does not rely on BP optimization as that in FF. Unlike FF, our framework directly outputs label distributions at each cascaded block, which does not require generation of additional negative samples. In our framework each block can be trained independently, so it can be easily deployed into parallel acceleration systems.

  We propose a differentiable quantity, named GradCosine, with theoretical insights to evaluate the initial state of a neural network. We show that both the training and test performance of a network can be improved by maximizing GradCosine under norm constraint. Generalized from the sample-wise analysis into the real batch setting, NIO is able to automatically look for a better initialization with negligible cost.

  Forward learning is a biologically plausible alternative to backprop for learning deep neural networks. We show that it is possible to substantially reduce the variance of the forward gradient by applying perturbations to activations rather than weights. Our approach matches backprop on MNIST and CIFAR-10 and significantly outperforms previously proposed backprop-free algorithms on ImageNet.
