HCL-FF augments the Forward-Forward algorithm with hierarchical learning and contrastive objectives to reach new state-of-the-art accuracies among FF methods on CIFAR-10 (+5.46%), CIFAR-100 (+17.00%), and Tiny-ImageNet (+12.51%).
Cumulative-goodness Forward-Forward networks exhibit layer free-riding where discrimination gradients decay exponentially with prior positive margins; per-block, hardness-gated, and depth-scaled remedies yield 4-45x better layer separation but <1% accuracy change on CIFAR and Tiny ImageNet.

Cumulative-Goodness Free-Riding in Forward-Forward Networks: Real, Repairable, but Not Accuracy-Dominant
Cumulative-goodness Forward-Forward networks exhibit layer free-riding where discrimination gradients decay exponentially with prior positive margins; per-block, hardness-gated, and depth-scaled remedies yield 4-45x better layer separation but <1% accuracy change on CIFAR and Tiny ImageNet.
