PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING OF PROPOSITIONAL LOGICAL NEURAL NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17804107 titled 'PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING OF PROPOSITIONAL LOGICAL NEURAL NETWORKS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system that uses a processor to identify weights in a propositional logical neural network and convert them into a sparse matrix. The system also converts a training set into bound vectors and updates the sparse matrix using a graphical processing unit (GPU). It computes a loss parameter and updates the weights of the neural network if the loss function is below a certain threshold.

  • System identifies weights in a propositional logical neural network
  • Weights are converted into a sparse matrix
  • Training set is converted into bound vectors
  • Sparse matrix is updated using a graphical processing unit (GPU)
  • Loss parameter is computed
  • Weights of the neural network are updated if loss function is below a threshold


Original Abstract Submitted

An embodiment may include a processor that identifies a plurality of weights from the propositional logical neural network. The embodiment may convert the plurality of weights into a sparse matrix. The embodiment may convert a training set into a plurality of bound vectors. The embodiment may update the sparse matrix using a graphical processing unit (GPU). The embodiment may compute a loss parameter and based on determining the loss function is below threshold, update the plurality of weights of the propositional neural network.
