Microelectronic Implementations of Connectionist Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we discuss why special purpose chips are needed for useful implementations of connectionist neural networks in such applications as pattern recognition and classification. Three chip designs are described: a hybrid digital/analog programmable connection matrix, an analog connection matrix with adjustable connection strengths, and a digital pipe lined best-match chip. The common feature of the designs is the distribution of arithmetic processing power amongst the data storage to minimize data movement. ... 0 Q)Q) ,c"C E~ ::::S,.... ZO

متن کاملNeural-symbolic integration
The field of neural-symbolic integration has received much attention recently. While with propositional paradigms, the integration of symbolic knowledge and connectionist systems (also called artificial neural networks) has already resulted in applicable systems, the theoretical foundations for the first-order case are currently being laid and first perspectives for real implementations are eme...
متن کاملHardware/Software Codesign for Embedded Implementation of Neural Networks
The performance of configurable digital circuits such as Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) increases at a very fast rate. Their fine-grain parallelism shows great similarities with connectionist models. This is the motivation for numerous works of neural network implementations on FPGAs, targeting applications such as autonomous robotics, ambulatory medical systems, etc. Nevertheless, such ...
متن کاملComputational modeling of dynamic decision making using connectionist networks
In this research connectionist modeling of decision making has been presented. Important areas for decision making in the brain are thalamus, prefrontal cortex and Amygdala. Connectionist modeling with 3 parts representative for these 3 areas is made based the result of Iowa Gambling Task. In many researches Iowa Gambling Task is used to study emotional decision making. In these kind of decisio...
متن کاملConnectionist Quantization Functions
One of the main strengths of connectionist systems, also known as neural networks, is their massive parallelism. However, most neural networks are simulated on serial computers where the advantage of massive parallelism is lost. For large and real-world applications, parallel hardware implementations are therefore essential. Since a discretization or quantization of the neural network parameter...
