[nengo-user] do nengo apply learning rules in simple addition?

[Trevor Bekolay]

Hello Nihar,

Addition in neural ensembles does not use learning rules for weight
adjustment. Instead, Nengo solves an optimization problem offline in order
to find good connection weights; once we find a set of connection weights,
it never changed.

Some more details on the technical aspects of Nengo can be found in this
document:
http://ctnsrv.uwaterloo.ca/cnrglab/sites/ctnsrv.uwaterloo.ca.cnrglab/files/papers/2012-TheNEF-TechReport.pdf.
The section on Computation, in particular, discusses this.
