2012-12-19 This table presents results of using the HammingNN classifier with a variety of publicly available datasets that are frequently used for development and testing of classifier paradigms. For comparison purposes, I’ve included results from 3 other classifier paradigms. Note: you may need to widen your browser window to view…

As a medical student in the early 1980’s, I was very excited when we were introduced to the physiology behind neurology. Having previously graduated in Electrical Engineering (Waterloo, 1970) and with several years of work experience in computer systems engineering, I immediately saw the potential for modeling neural networks using…

Since my medical school days, I’ve been mulling over some ideas for artificial neural networks that adhere more closely to the physiology that I studied. Over the past couple of years, I finally implemented those ideas, using the Forth programming language on a Macintosh. The process went considerably faster than…

Below is an article I wrote in 1989, describing my ideas for a neural network derived from my knowledge of physiology from medical student days, my studies in behaviour from psychiatry residency and practice, and computer principles from my time in engineering. A Neural Network Model Based On Brain Physiology…
