Abstract
The operation of neural networks begins with the initialization of the system with the information to be processed. Presently, this initialization is performed by pinning the system with rather large analog or digital signals representing this information. The problems associated with the high power required for such initialization are eliminated and accuracy is maintained by utilizing a specific set of input points and appropriately positioned switches. In particular, a switch corresponding to each amplifier is introduced, and the initializing data is introduced between the amplifier and this switch.
