NAME: SetPlast

SYNOPSIS: SetPlast [options] From To Net

DESCRIPTION

SetPlast is used to set the "plasticity" of selected connections. All connections from the object 'From' to the object 'To', where 'From' and 'To' can be either units or groups, are selected. The plasticity is a measure of how fast the connection weight should be changed in the training process. In the case of back-propagation, it's simply a scaling factor of the gradient. Most commands that create connections initialize the plasticity to 1.0. The default operation of SetPlast is to set the plasticity of selected connections to zero, effectively protecting them from changes.

OPTIONS

-w placticity Specifies the plasticity value (default is 0.0). High plasticity means fast weight changes. Plasticity of new connections are normally initialized to 1.0.
