  • Patent number: 5832183
    Abstract: An information recognition circuit comprises a plurality of recognition processing units each composed of a neural network. Teacher signals and information signals to be processed are supplied to a plurality of the units, individually so as to obtain output signals by executing individual learning. Thereafter, the plural units are connected to each other so as to construct a large scale information recognition system. Further, in the man-machine interface system, a plurality of operating instruction data are prepared. An operator's face is sensed by a TV camera to extract the factors related to the operator's facial expression. The neural network analogizes operator's feeling on the basis of the extracted factors. In accordance with the guessed results, a specific sort of the operating instruction is selected from a plurality of sorts of the operating instructions, and the selected instruction is displayed as an appropriate instruction for the operator.
