I have encountered some difficulties while training my nn. When I use, lets say, 10 training sets, at the end of training procces neural network is trained just for the last two. I’m entering same values that I have used to train network and I am getting wrong results save for the last two. It seems to me that new nn memory suppresses older memory. I’m using 64 input neurons, 42 neurons in hidden layer and one output neuron. Sigmoid function is used for activating neurons. Training inputs and expected outputs are in 0 to 1 range. Does anyone have any clue what might be causing the problem?

public float ulaz3;
public float[] input =new float[66];
public static float[] ioutput;
public float izlaz;
public void arrayInit()

int i, j;
for (i = 0; i <=64; i++)
{
w12[i] = new float[42];

}
for (i = 0; i <42; i++)
{

}
for (j = 0; j < 42; j++)
for (i = 0; i <=64; i++)
{
w12[i][j] = 0;
w12d[i][j] = 0;
}
for (j = 0; j < 2; j++)
for (i = 0; i < 42; i++)
{

w23d[i][j] = 0;
}
}
}
I found out what the problem was. I didn’t mix training arrays, I was introducing one array to nn until it was trained for it, instead of introducing all arrays in cyclic manner. I hope this will be useful for someone.
