Abstract
A method for pattern classification and, in particular, a method which distributes the classification criteria across a neural network. The classification criteria for a pattern class is stored distributively in the neural network in two aspects. First, it manifests itself as one or more levels of templates, each of which represents a fuzzily unique perspective of the pattern class. Second, the template at each level is represented by a set of fuzzy windows, each of which defines a classification criterion of a corresponding feature of the pattern class.
