Abstract:
THE FUNCTIONAL STATES OF A NEURAL COMBINATORIAL NET OF PRESCRIBED INTERCONNECTION GEOMETRY AND OVER-ALL NET FUNCTION ARE CHARACTERIZED AND ENUMERATED. The problem i formalized for nets having an arbitrary number of inputs and outputs by introducing the notion of a Boolean matrix. Various theorems forming a basis for the treatment of other neural net problems are proved.A discu sion of the concept of staility leads to a definition of a measure of net stability closely related to the set of functional s tes over which the input-output function i invariant.
