Characterizing activity in a recurrent artificial neural network

Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for characterizing activity in a recurrent artificial neural network. In one aspect, a method for identifying decision moments in a recurrent artificial neural network includes determining a complexity of patterns of activity in the recurrent artificial neural network, wherein the activity is responsive to input into the recurrent artificial neural network, determining a timing of activity having a complexity that is distinguishable from other activity that is responsive to the input, and identifying the decision moment based on the timing of the activity that has the distinguishable complexity.
