Neural Network Reliability

Abstract

The first attempts to estimate the neural network functional reliability were experimental [15-1] or qualitative [15-2]. The qualitative estimations showed that the neuron-like elements are characterized by the logical redundancy [15-2], [15-3], i.e., the failures of some elements do not result in the errors at the neural network output.
