ABSTRACT:
The present invention has as an object thereof to provide an intelligent electronical system which conducts the real-time recognition of real world data and makes decisions with respect to the data; that is to say, a computing circuit having an instantaneous recognition function and instantaneous recognition method. The invention relates to a computing circuit which selects predetermined codes with respect to a group of inputted signals comprising a plurality of analog signals, which is provided with: a mechanism whereby the group of inputted signals is converted to a group of input variables comprising a number of analog variables or multilevel variables which is smaller in number than analog signals, a memory circuit which stores a plurality of data comprising groups of a plurality of analog or multilevel variables determined in advance, a circuit which conducts a predetermined comparison operation between the group of input variables and a plurality of data stored in the memory circuit simultaneously and in parallel, and a mechanism for selecting at least one code corresponding to data which fit predetermined conditions, as a result of the comparison operation.
