  • Abstract
    The design and VLSI implementation of a pattern classifier based on pseudo 2D cellular automata (CA) is presented in this paper. Cellular automata exhibiting cyclic group structures are used to provide improved measures of the degree of similarity between patterns. The classifier operation is an adaptive process which gathers information during a training phase and uses them during the processing phase. For the VLSI implementation of the proposed pattern classifier, a 1.5 μm DLM n-well CMOS process has been used. The silicon area occupied by the chip is 5.46×5.45 mm2, and the clock frequency is 50 MHz
