  • Abstract
    The automatic synthesis of Boolean switching functions by adaptive tree networks is discussed. The concept of heuristic responsibility, by means of which parts of a tree become specialized to certain subsets of input vectors, is explained. Applications to pattern recognition and optical character recognition (OCR) problems are described.
