TOPIC:
Single-Pattern Filter Algorithm for Training Analog Artificial Neural Networks

ABSTRACT:
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are typically realized as computer programs designed to simulate the way in which the human brain processes information. ANNs gather their knowledge by detecting the patterns
and relationships through training not from programming. This thesis is using "Self-trained Multi-layer Analog Real-time" (SMART) architecture to solve the handwritten pattern recognition problem for numbers (0-9) by introducing a "Single-Pattern Filter Algorithm" (SPF) which takes inputs from raw data in the MNIST file for handwritten numbers (0-9) and provides 10x10 outputs to set the weights for the 10 neurons in the output layer neurons (OLNs). This thesis is also presenting MATLAB simulation using the Single-Pattern Filter algorithm.
