Digital system for teaching machine classifications - has sets of logic units including flip=flops, multipliers, NAND=gates and AND=gates to form products of input valves and weighting factors

摘要

The digital system using linear elements for classification of values obtained by teaching machines operates on both incremental and extreme values. It uses a multiplier and an adjuster with six adders and a number of flip-flops. The outputs are connected with a logic unit containing AND gates and OR gates. Circuit components include a multiplier to inctruduce weighting factors, and a typical unit involves NAND gates (31, 33), AND gates (32, 34) and an adder (35). The products formed are carried to a common terminal block (P2-P6). A futher stage incorporates an averging unit to produce mean values from the product totals.
