Abstract :
The application of digital stochastic computing techniques to the hardware synthesis of stochastic learning automata is considered. Experimental results are presented for a two-state automaton realised using a linear reward/punishment algorithm. The fast learning times obtained are believed to be of significance to the viability of direct on-line control of stochastic systems.
