Abstract :
A hardware device for training multi-hidden-layer neural networks is presented. It is based on a recently developed training algorithm that is an alternative to backpropagation. The new algorithm employs pseudoinverse techniques and preconditioning of the weights. The hardware device is implemented as an accelerator board for a personal computer or workstation and does the calculations via a ROM lookup table
