Abstract
An apparatus and method for creating data dependency in a neural network without the need for historical data or training is described. An 'auxiliary path' that is adjacent to the main path of the neural network contains neurons that receive input data, creating non-linearity beyond that normally present in the network. The outputs of the neurons in the auxiliary path do not directly feed into the layers of neurons in the main path of the network as inputs, but instead are used to “adjust” the input weights to neurons in the main path by selecting which of existing, pre-determined weights are used for any given input. No training phase is required, and the weights in the network do not change, but instead existing paths are simply opened or closed to inputs depending upon the inputs, effectively altering the input weights to the neurons in the main path.
