RE: about biological implausibility of backprop (Gillian Sanders)
I seem to recall an article about arachinoid acid getting back from postsynap-
tic to presynaptic membrane to sustain LTP. I can get those refs if you want.
But there is *glitch* with backprop and biological plausibilty, this is the
ERROR that is backpropagated ! Which is a lot more complex than sustaining
LTP.
BTW, I'm also (as you are) working on biological plausibility of neural nets.
If you wish to exchange views, I'll be more than happy.
