Abstract :
A statistical quantisation model is used to analyse the effects of quantisation when digital techniques are used to implement a real-valued feedforward multilayer neural network. A measurement of the degradation of performance of the network is derived following some assumptions. The newly defined ´effective nonlinearity coefficient´ plays an important role in the study.
