A Strong Winner-Take all Neural Network in Analogue Hardware

Ralf Moeller, Joerg Tomes, Alexander Mojaev, Inst. Computer Science, Univ of Zurich, Winterthurstr 190, CH-8057 Zurich, Switzerland A winner-take all model is presented that is suited for an implementation in an analogue circuit. The model is strong and value-preserving and requires only O(n) connections. Existence of a single equilibrium state and convergence is proved. The operation is demonstrated for a test circuit with four neurons built from standard opamps.
