Mono-Forward algorithm offers local learning alternative to backpropagation

Researchers have introduced Mono-Forward (MF), a new algorithm designed to improve upon the Forward-Forward (FF) method for training deep neural networks. MF maintains the local learning and reduced memory footprint of FF while replacing its contrastive goodness objective with a standard cross-entropy loss. This modification allows MF to achieve competitive or superior performance compared to FF and even backpropagation on certain tasks, such as MLP-Mixers on PathMNIST, while using significantly less memory.

    Mono-Forward: Revisiting Forward-Forward through Objective-Locality Decomposition

    arXiv:2501.09238v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Backpropagation remains the dominant algorithm for training deep neural networks, but it incurs substantial memory overhead and relies on global error propagation, which is often regarded as biologically implausible. The Forward…
