-
- Instead of traditional vonNeumann machines, researchers wanted to build
machines based on the human brain
-
- An architecture as well as a learning technique
Connection Machine
-
- The data structure is a network of units that act as "neurons"
-
- Tested as a computing device originally by researchers such as
Jon Hopfield (Cal Tech), Hebb (1949), Minsky (1951), and Rosenblatt (1957)
-
- Also models human performance
Voice recognition, handwriting recognition, face recognition
(traditionally computers bad at these tasks, humans great)
