2011 18th IEEE International Conference and Workshops on Engineering of Computer-Based Systems
Queral Networks: Toward an Approach for Engineering Large Artificial Neural Networks
Las Vegas, Nevada USA
April 27-April 29
ISBN: 978-0-7695-4379-6
A generalization of an artificial neuron is introduced in this paper. Called the queron, this abstraction is the basic computational node of Queral Networks (QN). QNs are introduced as a parallel architecture expected to be an improvement upon Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The fundamental properties of QNs are presented here: reusability, complexity management and human-readability. It is expected that this proposed architecture will allow the engineering of large, highly parallel computer systems with the computational benefits of ANNs while overcoming the challenge of developing ANNs. A brief case study is given to illustrate the QN concept.
