            Abstract : 
A neural network simulation technique tailored for analog hardware implementation is discussed. Lookup tables are used to represent the nonideal properties of the analog circuitry. A weight perturbation training algorithm, well suited for hardware implementations, is presented. Simulated annealing schemes are shown to improve training performance associated with analog neural networks
