Abstract :
The authors present an analog complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) version of a model for pattern association, along with discussions of design philosophy, electrical results, and a chip architecture for a 512-element, feed-forward IC. They discuss hardware implementations of neural networks and the effect of limited interconnections. They then examine network design, processor-element design, and system operation.<>
