Abstract

A significant advantage of a HONN over other neural net paradigms is that geometric invariance can be designed into the network thereby avoiding the need for the network to develop its internal representations over hundreds or thousands of training iterations through a much larger training set. With a HONN, only one view of each object is required for learning, clearly making it a much more attractive architecture.
