Abstract
Described is an inference circuit for pattern recognition for use within convolutional neural nets for online learning using K-means clustering. The inference circuit includes a set of templates, each template having a template data memory. The inference circuit also include at least one match element, the match element being operable for receiving an input data pattern and determining a degree of match between the input data pattern and a template. A best match logic circuit is included for selecting a template in the set of templates that best matches the input data pattern, said template being a best match template. Finally, an updated is included for probabilistically modifying the template data memories based on the best match template.
