N2  - The technique known as ?weight decay? in the literature about learning from data is investigated using tools from regularization theory. Weight-decay regularization is compared with Tikhonov?s regularization of the learning problem and with a mixed regularized learning technique. The accuracies of suboptimal solutions to weight-decay learning are estimated for connectionistic models with a-priori fixed numbers of computational units.
