Abstract :
In this paper, a new phenomenon observed in cellular neural networks (CNNs) is treated. Some experimental results will be introduced, showing that spatio-temporal noise in two layers-two dimensional CNN architectures could improve the propagation of damped traveling waves. The CNN model and templates are reported and computer simulation results will emphasize the innovative results
