  • Abstract
    In this paper, a geometrical representation of McCulloch-Pitts neural model (1943) is presented, From the representation, a clear visual picture and interpretation of the model can be seen. Two interesting applications based on the interpretation are discussed. They are 1) a new design principle of feedforward neural networks and 2) a new proof of mapping abilities of three-layer feedforward neural networks
