It would be and this is well known in practice. Logic around the music is the same so hw would learn faster. In the very long run there might be no wanted effects. i.e. hard to learn away from something too similar. But in case of trumper and violin no. But lets say 10 years of training violin played like bluegrass player plays and then switchin to classical. That would be hard. due required unlearning for which humans do no really have mechanism for. New skill needs to be learned better thatn the old skill or time needs to erase the untrained old skill. While the DCNN can learn and unlearn quite easily 2017-11-22 0:48 GMT+02:00 Álvaro Begué <alvaro.be...@gmail.com>: > The term you are looking for is "transfer learning": https://en. > wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_learning > > > On Tue, Nov 21, 2017 at 5:27 PM, "Ingo Althöfer" <3-hirn-ver...@gmx.de> > wrote: > >> Hi Erik, >> >> > No need for AlphaGo hardware to find out; any >> > toy problem will suffice to explore different >> > initialization schemes... >> >> I know that. >> >> My intention with the question is a different one: >> I am thinking how humans are learning.
