  • Abstract
    A model is proposed in which the neuron serves as an information channel. An application of the Shannon information measures of entropy and mutual information taken together in the context of the proposed model lead to the Hopfield neuron model with a conditionalized Hebbian learning rule and sigmoidal transfer characteristic
