ABSTRACT:
A recognizing and judging apparatus includes a plurality of recognition units organized in a multi-layered hierarchical network structure. Some recognition units include a signal input section, a quantizer for performing a quantization according to a signal inputted from the signal input section, and a path selecting section having at least one path input terminal; and at least one path output terminal. The path selecting section performs a selection of paths according to an output of the quantizer.
