Abstract: The present invention provides a high speed digital data retiming apparatus, in which, in binary data bits transmitted at a high speed, the data can be retimed in a stable manner, even if there are present a static skew due to a delay difference between the retiming clock pulse and the data and a dynamic skew due to the characteristic variation according to time and temperature. Therefore, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the conventional apparatus. First, periodical and regular external clock pulses are delayed by means of a delaying section, so that system performance is independent of the pattern of data. Second, even if the data phases show a continuous difference (wandering) for more than a certain period of time, an elastic buffer absorbs the wandering, and therefore, no data loss is generated, with the result that the system is not put to a disorder condition.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for classifying and recognizing image patterns using a second-order neural network, thereby achieving high-rate parallel processing while lowering the complexity. The second-order neural network, which is made of adders and multipliers, corrects positional translations generated in a complex-log mapping unit to output the same result for the same object irrespective of the scale and/or rotation of the object. The present invention enables high-rate image pattern classification and recognition based on parallel processing, which is the advantage obtained in neural network models, because consistent neural networks and consistent network structure computation models are applied to all steps from the image input step to the pattern classifying and recognizing step.
