Abstract

A novel architecture is described for applying a sum and threshold function to a weightless input string and a weightless threshold string. The sum and threshold function is carried out by distributing the input bits in random manner (12) between a number of sum and threshold devices (14), whose outputs are supplied to a second layer of one or more sum and threshold devices (16).
