ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a classification method and apparatus for classifying an input into one of a plurality of possible outputs. The invention is also a method and apparatus for adjusting a neuron encompassing a plurality of feature vectors. The invention characterizes the spatial distribution of the feature vectors. The invention then spatially adjusts the neuron in accordance with that characterization.
