scholarly journals Prediction of Solutions of Arithmetic and Logical Operations on the Basis of the Mathematical Model of Cognitive Digital Automata

An approach to the problem of solution prediction of arithmetic and logical operations on the basis of the mathematical model of cognitive digital automata (CDA) is proposed. A particular advantage of the proposed approach is that the training procedure can be performed on limited (minimum) training sets. Prediction or generation of solutions is performed on the basis of the mathematical model of CDA which is formed in the course of training. As a testbed for the approach, the modeling of an n-bit parallel adder was implemented. The mathematical model of the adder was formed, which made it possible to reproduce the entire truth table for the n-bit parallel adder. The results obtained could be useful as an alternative solution to a number of problems known for conventional feed-forward neural networks, e.g. on-the-fly learning and catastrophic forgetting.

Neural networks are now widely and successfully used in the recognition of handwritten numerals. Despite their wide use in recognition, neural networks have not seen widespread use in segmentation. Segmentation can be extremely difficult in the presence of connected numerals, fragmented numerals, and background noise, and its failure is a principal cause of rejected and incorrectly read documents. Therefore, strategies leading to the successful application of neural technologies to segmentation are likely to yield important performance benefits. In this paper we identify problems that have impeded the use of neural networks in segmentation and describe an evolutionary approach to applying neural networks in segmentation. Our approach, based upon the use of monotonic fuzzy valued decision functions computed by feed-forward neural networks, has been successfully employed in a production system.
