51 Creator of the network AutoCM ( ), whose theoretical inspiration dates back to 1994, which is a neural network where the learning process occurs through a change of connections according to the energy minimization, and corresponds to the continuous accelerations and decelerations of speed of the signal within the matrix of the connections of the network. The connections of the second layer of the network car-cm (the ones that go from the Hidden units to units of output) are the point where the energy released by the nodes, from one layer to another, is trapped. In 2007 the findings of this network are: 1) the iteration of the model with Aloc AutoCM and CS Batch for validation (January 2007), 2) iteration AutoCM and CS Batch for dynamic clustering (February 2007), and 3) the 'use of the CS network with optimal choice of inhibitions AutoCM (January 2007); 4) the spontaneous CS network with choice attractors (February 2007), 5) use of learned responses to a CS network from a AutoCM that reusing the CS define the minimum threshold in turn defines the natural clusters of responses set in the initial phase (March 2007) The ACM (Active Connection Matrix) developed since 2003 has had in 2007 the addition of several discoveries that have extended and improved the functioning of the system, and are implemented in the latest software versions on: 1) discovery of the parameter Alfa with its automatic scanning, 2) function of learning and K-means clustering of multiple images (February 2007) Creator of method ALOC (At Least One Connection), which allows the connection of data from different databases. The minimum requirement to run Aloc is the presence of at least one variable in common between the DB and interact. There is no theoretical limit to the number of DB that can be connected (June-October 2005) Creator of J-Net a new algorithm inserted into the ACM system capable of improving the ability to image processing showing more clearly the definition of the edges, and that lends itself to useful applications in the field of bio-medical imaging (September 2005 ) Creator of the method IFAST (Implicit Function As Squashing Time). The method IFAST multivariate analyzes a sequence of signals, generated from the same source, considering it as a complex dynamic system asynchronous and non-linear, in which the behavior of each channel can only be understood in relation to all others. The central idea of the method IFAST is the belief that a pattern of signals on multiple channels can be summarized by the parameters of the connections of a neural network AutoAssociata, whose transfer functions are nonlinear and differentiable at every point (April 2005) Creator of Top Net systems is the type of dynamic space and time variations ACM, both the units on the links.

This version consists in the definition of a new equation of learning, in such a way that the convergence and the best definition of the function to compute a complex weighting occurs by means of radial functions and hyperplanes. Semeion, Creator of a new version of the Cross-Over to PST. This new Cross Over for the PST, which is an optimization problem non-sequential and repetitive, is based on local optimization instead of the classical random recombination of a pair of individuals. The two individuals chosen for the marriage are aligned with respect to a gene selected at random and are later selected genes from the father or mother, that I better locally-nimizzano the distance between the real and the assumed distance. Semeion, Creator of a new version of MetaGen: this new version is completely different from the previous one (Buscema, 1997, vd. 7.13). This new release features: a.

Semeion, Creator of a new version of Metanet: a new architecture and consists of adding an additional algorithm to define the parameters of Metanet. In classical Metanet (Buscema, 1995, vd. 7.6), the output of the ANNs input components became Metanet Metanet and weights were trained locally: each ANN component was defined with specific weights that took into account their specific capabilities, all was performed with three algorithms to choose from: a. an algorithm based on the ANN Back Propagation; b. an algorithm based on ANN car Reflective (see and 5.14); c. an algorithm based on optimization of concordance and discordance of Predi-tion of cases of ANN component testing (called Bayesano). Metanet 2002 presents a new architecture in which the weights of Metanet are trained globally with all the ANNs components in parallel. In addition, the three previous algorithms, it was added a fourth based on ANN Auto Contractive Map (see 5.20) Semeion, Creator of a system to generate Virtual Data (X *) from the ANN has learned the function, where w = parameters.
