Abstract: This article introduces Adaptive Resonance Theory 2-A (ART 2-A), an efficient algorithm that emulates the self-organizing pattern recognition and hypothesis testing properties of the ART 2 neural network architecture, but at a speed two to three orders of magnitude faster. Analysis and simulations show how? the ART 2-A systems correspond to ART 2 dynamics at both the fast-learn limit and at intermediate learning rates.Intermediate learning rates permit fast commitment of category nodes but slow recoding, analogous to propertiesof word frequency effects, encoding specificity effects, and episodic memory. Better noise tolerance is hereby achieved without a loss of learning stability. The ART 2 and ART 2-A systems are contrasted with the leader algorithm. The speed of ART 2-A makes practical the use of ART 2 modules in large scale neural computation.
