Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A Bayesian neural network can output approximate posterior probabilities of categories when its learning is completed. The outputs can be used as discriminant functions and an observable is allocated to the category with maximum posterior probability. We treat a neural network adapted to the source of observables which migrates among several states. A transition of state causes a change in the ratio of priors as well as that of posterior probabilities of categories. In this paper, we show that if an ordinary Bayesian neural network, having rather a small number of units, is supplied with a few additional input units, it can learn simultaneously state-wise distinct posterior probabilities. The learning algorithm and the result of simulations are also shown.
