| Abstract: | An optical system for learning neural networks with a 2-D architecture was constructed using a Selfoc microlens array. Using this system, we achieved pattern recognition of typed alphabet characters detected directly with a CCD camera. The system learned 4 characters according to a random search algorithm in order to avoid the difficulties and the costs of calculations of learning signals, optical alignments and addressing to the device which display the weight tensors. |
