Abstract :
Neural network machine architectures based on knowledge about biological computers such as the human brain are discussed. The limitations of the Von Neumann machine for doing many tasks are noted, and a simple neural network is described. The two basic types of memory supported by neural network machines, autoassociative and associative, are discussed. A mathematical description of an autoassociative neural network is given.<>
