    1. k-separability generalizes the concept of separability, making the goal of learning much easier. Networks should transfer the image of the input data into distributions that can be handled directly.

      Non-Euclidean distance function replacing sigmoidal activation function offer a natural generalization of the standard MLP model, providing more flexible decision borders. An alternative way leading to similar results is based on renormalization of the input vectors using nonEuclidean norms in extended feature spaces. Both approaches influence the shapes of decision borders dramatically, allowing to reduce the complexity of MLP networks.

  2. Feature Space Mapping
  3. Paper published in 1994 in "Neural Network World" introduced "Floating Gaussian Mapping for Modeling of Human Conceptual Space", idea similar to gaussian mixture modeling for estimation of probability densities in feature spaces characterizing psychological concepts. The use of Gaussian functions to model probability densities in quantum mechanics was the main motivation to create such model. This idea gave rise to more general Feature Space Mapping Neurofuzzy system that was based on separable basis functions. The model was implemented in our Ghostminer data mining system that was marketed by Fujitsu.

  4. Floating Gaussian Mapping
  5. Floating Gaussian Mapping was inspired by the use of Gaussian function to calculate probability density in quantum physics; the model is equivalent to Radial Basis Function network. Early papers from the beginning of 1990. This also resulted in papers on neural versions of minimal distance methods, that was later developed into general approach to similarity-based methods.

  6. Novel neural transfer functions
  7. Some complexity of neural networks may be hidden in more sophisticated transfer functions, not just sigmoids or Gaussians. There is a hierarchy of neural-like models from simple nodes implementing functions with a single parameter and fixed weighted connections, to complex agents implementing various functions and procedures and exchanging information sending messages and forming ad-hoc subnetworks. Initially this subject was ignored but now it has gained popularity.

Meta-learning

Operating in the space of all available data transformations and optimization techniques meta-learning algorithms use meta-knowledge about learning processes automatically extracted from experience of solving diverse problems, searching for most interesting compositions of transformations and optimizations, uncovering various aspects of knowledge hidden in the data. Meta-learning shifts the focus of the whole CI field from individual learning algorithms to the higher level of learning how to learn.This idea was introduced first in the framework of similarity-based methods in 2001.

Cognitive systems/technologies.

Searching for models that serve as bridges between mind and brain. In the "mind space" model mental events are represented using neurofuzzy approach for probability density modelling. Activation of sequences of areas in the mind space represented object recognition, action and mental trajectory, providing links between neurodynamics and visualization of mental events. |

Artificial Intelligence.

In 1992 first preprints on noisy data trees have been published by W. Duch, and a year later two important ideas were presented in preprints. First, "Syntactic and semantic information in finite systems", containing the idea of pragmatic information measure that can be used to evaluate the value of new data for cognitive systems, including knowledge based systems.

    Symmetric group graphical approach

  3. Book on graphical approach and group theory ideas for general variational calculations: "Graphical representation of model spaces" (Springer Verlag, 1986). This approach was the basis of 4 PhDs done at the Max Planck Institute of Astrophysics in Munich, Germany. Results were presented at various conferences in Europe, and as a long tutorial presented at the "Workshop on Algebraic Methods in Molecular Physics" in Jerusalem (1988) and at the 3-day, 24 hour marathon lectures in applications of symmetric group theory and graphical techniques at the Tokyo University in 1994.

  4. Development of superdirect configuration interaction and multireference superdirect configuration interaction in third order, based on equations derived using computer algebra system "Maple" (Duch, Meller, 1989-1994).
    Superdirect CI
  5. Applications of computational quantum mechanics to calculation of complex molecular properties. First calculations of the absorption and magnetic circular dichroism spectrum of a Jahn-Teller distorted excited state of cyclopropane (Duch, Segal, 1983) and other applications.
    Calculation of complex properies

Foundation of physics, quantum informatics.

Papers on quantum entanglement, written before this field has developed into quantum informatics (Duch, 1988-2003).

I have proposed to measure correlations between pairs of particles in a double Mach-Zehnder experiment. I did send it to two journals and then gave up, referees found it "seriously flawed" and "completely wrong". 5 years later Berkeley group performed experiment based on the same idea and the excitement about entangled systems continues to this day, see my letter to the Physics Today here.
