COGNITIVE NETWORKS, TECHNIQUES AND COMPONENTS (PROJECT CONTAC).
Abstract
Optical-electronic techniques for implementation of linear discrimination systems indicate considerable promise for high-speed parallel pattern recognition problems. Several multiple image optical schemes have been conceived and investigated using lens and mirrors to solve the sensor to association unit interconnection problem. The A-unit activity pattern may be transmitted by multiple image lenses through weights to the response units. Fixed density A to R weights may be satisfactorily formed by the Kodak Autoscreen process. Experimental investigation of the optical and electronic techniques for the linear discriminator has resulted in the development of a single-element experimental model which has satisfactorily demonstrated the ability to dichotomize typewritten letters. Preliminary results indicate that a full scale linear discriminator model would, from the implementation considerations, be technically feasible. (Author)
