In the framework of on-line learning, a learning machine might move around a teacher due to the differences in structures or output functions between the teacher and the learning machine. In this paper we analyze the generalization performance of a new student supervised by a moving machine. A model composed of a fixed true teacher, a moving teacher, and a student is treated theoretically using statistical mechanics, where the true teacher is a nonmonotonic perceptron and the others are simple perceptrons. Calculating the generalization errors numerically, we show that the generalization errors of a student can temporarily become smaller than that of a moving teacher and can reach the lowest value, even if the student only uses examples from the moving teacher. However, the generalization error of the student eventually becomes the same value with that of the moving teacher. This behavior is qualitatively different from that of a linear model.
