  • Abstract
    A method for synthesizing max-min propagation neural networks by using genetic algorithms is proposed. These networks are viewed as switching among hyperplanes and the switching configurations are evolved. A distance measure between n-ary strings of variable length is introduced. This metric is used in a niching algorithm to find multiple optima in the space of architectures. Simulation results on the exclusive-OR problem and the interpretation of electrocardiograms are presented
