Abstract :
This paper describes an approach to the ASIC implementation of a multilayered feedforward neural network. Based on a new learning algorithm (Forward Propagation Algorithm), our system realizes a real full-parallel architecture and allows all of the neurons to work parallelly and independently. Hardware cost is greatly reduced and the network is easy to expand. The current results of our implementation using an Xinlinx FPGA chip are also presented
