Regarding lateral connection in progressive network

[winnieyangwannan]

Hi!

I was playing with you PNN code, which is amazing!

I have one question regarding how you set up the adaptor. I noticed that in your code, each column (_c) only connects with ONE last column (_c-1) in stead of ALL PREVIOUS column. One way to interpret that is that other previous layers' contribution is indirectly reflected in the last column. However, I was wondering if you have any other takes in this?

Thanks very much for sharing your code and stay safe!
