Abstract
This paper is concerned with the synthesis of networks of threshold elements to separate patterns into two classes. There exist many algorithms which determine the parameters of a classifier, when the two classes are linearly separable. But a large number of problems do not fulfill this requirement. In such cases it is necessary to generate nonlinear decision boundaries to separate the patterns.
