Title:
NEURAL NETWORK
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3126762
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To improve the function of a neural network by permitting a third neuron unit to directly control signal transmission between first and second neuron units.
CONSTITUTION: A signal transmission control means 7 controlling the quantity of signals is provided on signal lines 4 and 5 being signal transmission lines between the first and second neuron units 1 and 2. The signal transmission control means 7 operates by interlocking to the state of the third neuron unit 3. Furthermore, the signal transmission control means 7 consists of a NOT circuit 9 and an AND circuit 8, ANDs a result taking the logical NOT of a bit inputted from a signal line 6 and a bit inputted from the signal line 4 and transmits a result to the signal line 5. If the neuron unit 3 is in a halt state, namely, if only the bit of a value '0' is outputted, the signal inputted to the signal transmission control means 7 through the signal line 4 enters the signal line 5 through the means 7 as it is.
