Abstract :
A nearly cost-optimal winner-take-all (WTA) neural network derived from a constant-time sorting network is presented. The resultant WTA network has connection complexity O(n(2s/(2s-1))) where s is the depth of cascaded sorting networks. Application of the WTA network to other problems such as nonbinary majority is also included
