We discuss properties of high order neurons in competitive learning. In such neurons, geometric shapes replace the role of classic `point' neurons in neural networks. Complex ...
Grid systems integrate distributed resources to form self-organization and self-management autonomies. Recently, for large-scale computation requirement, the collaboration of diffe...
