This reprository is a PyTorch implementation of the paper "Unsupervised learning by competing hidden units". By Dmitry Krotov and John J. Hopfield.

And a simple implementation of "Random synaptic feedback weights support error backpropagation for deep learning" by Timothy P. Lillicrap, Daniel Cownden, Douglas B. Tweed & Colin J. Akerman.

We also very brielfy explore adversarial robustness of models implemented with this method.
