A new theorem for the development and convergence analysis of supervised training algorithms with an adaptive learning rate for each weight is presented. Based on this theoretical result, a strategy is proposed to automatically adapt the search direction, as well as the step size length along the resultant search direction. This strategy is applied to some well-known local learning algorithms to investigate its effectiveness.
