<p>A pattern recognition apparatus is constituted by a feature data extraction section (12), a RAM (14) for storing feature data, a memory (15) for storing standard pattern data, and arithmetic section for performing a similarity measurement calculation between input pattern data and the standard pattern data, based on a multiple similarity method, and a controller (13) for recognizing an input signal, based on the calculation result from the arithmetic section (16). The arithmetic section is constituted by: a bus (31), a first multiplexer (32) for selecting any of the feature data, data on the data bus (31), and a constant ( theta ), a second multiplexer (33) for selecting any of the feature data, the standard pattern data, and data on the data bus (31), first and second registers (34) for storing output data from the first multiplexer (32) and from the second multiplexer (33), respectively, a partial product generator (36) for generating partial products of the data stored in the first and second registers (34, 35), a shifter (37) for shifting the partial products by a predetermined number of bits, a digital adder (38) for adding the output data from the shifter (37) to other data, and outputting the addition result onto the data bus (31), a third register (39) for storing the output data from the adder (38), and a third multiplexer (40) for selecting one of the data stored in the third register and output data of the adder (38), and supplying the data selected, as the other data, to the adder (38), for the adder to perform an accumulation operation.</p> |
