Abstract(in English) A conventional neural network with high generalization ability is known to entirely forget the previously learned information by sequential learning. Recent applied researches have showed that selective desensitization neural network (SDNN) does not have this problem, but its factors are unclear. The present study clarifies the capability and its factors of SDNN on sequential learning by analyzing the difference in characteristics of SDNN and conventional neural networks through numerical experiments of sequential learning on two-dimensional function approximation tasks. As a result, SDNN was able to not only locally fit to each of the new data but also affect widely to complement between samples when several similar data gathered near. These characteristics of SDNN contribute to its high capability to both preserve the previous model and effectively fit to the new data while keeping high generalization ability.
