Natural-gradient learning for spiking neurons [PDF]
In many normative theories of synaptic plasticity, weight updates implicitly depend on the chosen parametrization of the weights. This problem relates, for example, to neuronal morphology: synapses which are functionally equivalent in terms of their ...

Thermodynamic natural gradient descent (NGD-T) regulates natural-gradient steps by a geometric speed-cost bound [PDF]
We introduce Thermodynamic Natural Gradient Descent (NGD-T), an optimizer that enforces a physical speed-cost constraint by combining Fisher-preconditioned updates with a dissipation-aware step-size regulator.

Variational Bayesian Kalman filter using natural gradient
We propose a technique based on the natural gradient method for variational lower bound maximization for a variational Bayesian Kalman filter. The natural gradient approach is applied to the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the parameterized ...

Parametrisation Independence of the Natural Gradient in Overparametrised Systems
In this paper we study the natural gradient method for overparametrised systems. This method is based on the natural gradient field which is invariant with respect to coordinate transformations.
