This circuit learns to assign an input to an arbitrary output using a teacher signal or more generally a positive or negative reinforcement. The input is at the top while the output is at the bottom. The right side input is a bias signal. As such this circuit accomplishes operant conditioning. It also show the core concepts of ethology in which the side input is the hypothalamic motivation signal which is then released by the sensor signal coming from the top.

When used as the second stage with the first stage being the pattern regularity detector patterns can be arbitrarily classified.

  • It's called a Highly Adaptive Electron Gateway (Hrubes et al.,1985) and it actually exists within the core processing nodes of supercomputers based on the Highly Adaptive Distributed Dataflow Architecture (HADDFA).
