Researchers have developed a new recurrent neural network architecture called EISep RNN that successfully incorporates Dale's principle, a biological constraint where neurons are either exclusively excitatory or inhibitory. Previous attempts to implement this principle in artificial neural networks often resulted in training difficulties or reduced performance. EISep RNN, however, demonstrates more stable training, comparable or better results, and more modular connectivity across various learning tasks, including multi-task, continual, and reinforcement learning. This work suggests that Dale's principle can serve as an effective inductive bias for recurrent neural networks. AI
