  • Abstract
    In this paper the process of forgetting, termed “engram decay”, in artificial neural networks is examined for three classes of networks: the self organizing map, fuzzy logic adaptive resonance theory and, maximally connected backpropagation networks. All networks were trained to categorize three varieties of iris. How iris categories are forgotten is shown to be strongly related to the distribution of iris categories in feature space
