The well-known local adjustment algorithm for training a
threshold logic unit, TLU, is extended to a local adjustment
algorithm for training a network of TLUs Computer simulations
show that the extension is unsatisfactory.
A new logic for a committee of TLUs, called modified veto logic,
and a local adjustment algorithm...
I have developed what I believe to be a very general method of
feature extraction. The key to the generality of the method is that
we examine each individual characteristic separately with a minimum
of dependence upon other characteristics. The basic idea is to discover
discriminating characteristics by a linear...
The project herein described, presents the results of an investigation
in the relatively new and expanding field of computer stimulated
learning machines for use in pattern recognition.
A learning machine, one that benefits from its past experience
was devised in computer program form. It may be described as a
Piecewise-Linear,...
In many practical applications of learning systems
to problems of pattern recognition it has been realized
and explicitly noted in the literature that linear discriminations
are inadequate. On the other hand, it has also
been noted that very little is known about the training
of non-linear systems.
A reasonable compromise...
