Abstract

A hardware implementation design of parallelized fuzzy Adaptive Resonance Theory neural network is described and simulated. Parallel category choice and resonance are implemented in the network. Continuous-time and discrete-time winner-take-all neural circuits identifying the largest of M inputs are used as the winner-take-all units. The continuous-time circuit is described by a state equation with a discontinuous right-hand side. The discrete-time counterpart is governed by a difference equation. Corresponding functional block-diagrams of the circuits include M feed-forward hard- limiting neurons and one feedback neuron, which is used to compute the dynamic shift of inputs. The circuits combine arbitrary finite resolution of inputs, high convergence speed to the winner-take-all operation, low computational and hardware implementation complexity, and independence of initial conditions. The circuits are also used for finding elements of input vector with minimal/maximal values to normalize them in the range [0,1].
