Abstract :
The authors propose a novel multilayer parallel distributed pattern recognition system model in which the n-tuple principle in WISARD is followed and ordinary RAM nets are replaced by sparse RAM. The new system considers pattern correlation and is able to optimise n-tuple size a larger range through reduction of cost. Preliminary experiments with handwritten Chinese character recognition have confirmed the feasibility of the model.
