Book Description

Extensive data and mathematical theory are presented on the computer simulation or Probability State Variable (PSV) devices, e.g., the Neurotron, Random State Variable (RSV) Strategy devices, and networks of these elements as a function of the network connectivity, and score and value functions in four problem classes: re-entry trajectory prediction, pattern recognition, inferential measurement techniques, and self-organizing controllers. The simulation models are presented in detail. Hardware implementation is discussed, using statistical source design as a vehicle for insight into cost analysis of the Demonstrator Neurotron and the feasibility of construction of the networks studied.
