  • Abstract
    We described in this paper the use of Modular Neural Networks (MNN) for pattern recognition in parallel using a cluster of computers with a master-slave topology. In this paper, we are proposing the use of MNN to face recognition with large databases to validate this approach. Also, a parallel genetic algorithm to optimization architecture was used.
