Abstract

Two techniques to enhance the capabilities of a CAM-brain machine are proposed. The first is a learning capability that is realized by providing a “decay register” in each neuron cell. The second is a neural network relocation capability that makes it possible to compact the evolved neural network and make room for further evolution. Both techniques operate in an extrinsic manner and are considered supplementary to the intrinsic evolutionary capability of a CAM-brain.
