Abstract
There are two problems in the conventional ART1 algorithm. One is in similarity testing method of the conventional ART1 between input patterns and stored patterns. The other is that vigilance threshold of conventional ART1 influences the number of clusters and the rate of recognition. In this paper, new similarity testing method and dynamical vigilance threshold method are proposed to solve these problems. The former is similarity test method using the rate of norm of exclusive-NOR between input patterns and stored patterns and the rate of nodes have equivalence value, and the latter method dynamically controls vigilance threshold to similarity using fuzzy operations and the sum operation of Yager. To check the performance of new methods, we used 26 alphabet characters and nosed characters. In experiment results, the proposed methods are better than the conventional methods in ART1, because the proposed methods are less sensitive than the conventional methods for initial vigilance and the recognition rate of the proposed methods is higher than that of the conventional methods.
