Update will be performed only if the expected values match the
current values.<br/>
In effect, when concurrent threads call this method, the state
could be modified by one, so that it does not correspond to the
the state assumed by another.
Typically, a caller <a href="../../../../../../org/apache/commons/math3/ml/neuralnet/Neuron.html#getFeatures()"><code>retrieves the current state</code></a>,
and uses it to compute the new state.
During this computation, another thread might have done the same
thing, and updated the state: If the current thread were to proceed
with its own update, it would overwrite the new state (which might
already have been used by yet other threads).
To prevent this, the method does not perform the update when a
concurrent modification has been detected, and returns <code>false</code>.
When this happens, the caller should fetch the new current state,
redo its computation, and call this method again.</div>
<dl><dt><span class="strong">Parameters:</span></dt><dd><code>expect</code> - Current values of the features, as assumed by the caller.
