An alternative proof of the universality of the CNN-UM and its practical applications

In this paper we give a proof of the universality of the Cellular Neural Network - Universal Machine (CNN-UM) alternative to those presented so far. On the one hand, this allows to find a general structure for CNN-UM programs; on the other hand, it helps to formally demonstrate that machine learning techniques can be used to find CNN-UM programs automatically. Finally, we report on two experiments in which our system is able to propose new efficient solutions.
