OPTOELECTRONIC NEURON NETWORK SIMULATOR Russian patent published in 1996 - IPC

FIELD: optoelectronic neuron- like computer structures used as co-processors of neurocomputer systems. SUBSTANCE: optoelectronic neuron network simulator has two intercoupled optoelectronic operating units of distributed simulating medium and, in addition, it is provided with optoelectronic feedback assemblies, optoelectronic displays, continuous optical signals being expected to be converter into optical discrete signals in axon-like assemblies, and in synapse-like assemblies optical discrete signals are converter into continuous optical signals. Optical outputs of optoelectronic displays in optoelectronic feedback assemblies mounted on flat photoresistor simulating divergence of output signals are optically coupled with optical inputs of flat operational photoresistor simulating convergence of input signals; provision is made for implementing adaptation and training functions in neuron networks. EFFECT: provision for displaying excitation and deceleration fields in neuron simulating regions due to optoelectronic displays with different radiation spectra mounted on flat photoresistor simulating convergence of input actions in neuron soma. 3 dwg
