STRIP -- a strip-based neural-network growth algorithm for learning multiple-valued functions

Abstract

We consider the problem of synthesizing multiple-valued logic functions by neural networks. A genetic algorithm (GA) which finds the longest strip in is described. A strip contains points located between two parallel hyperplanes. Repeated application of GA partitions the space into certain number of strips, each of them corresponding to a hidden unit. We construct two neural networks based on these hidden units and show that they correctly compute the given but arbitrary multiple-valued function. Preliminary experimental results are presented and discussed
