ABSTRACT:
A neural network and method for pipeline operation within a neural network which permits rapid classification of input vectors provided thereto is disclosed. In a training mode, a plurality of training input features are presented to the neural network and distances between the plurality of training features and a plurality of prototype weight values are concurrently computed. In response to an indication of a last training epoch count values for each of the prototype weight values are stored in a memory to thereby allow the neural network to operate in a probabilistic classification mode.
