Abstract
The present commentary addresses the Quartz & Sejnowski
(Q&S) target article from the point of view of the dynamical
learning algorithm for neural networks. These techniques implicitly
adopt Q&S's neural constructivist paradigm. Their approach
hence receives support from the biological and psychological evidence.
Limitations of constructive learning for neural networks are discussed
with an emphasis on grammar learning.
