hat could recognize some patterns, but were limited in
their learning abilities because of hardware limitations. In the 1990's computer simulations
of brain functions are gaining respect as the simulations increase their abilities to predict
the behavior of the nervous system. This respect is illustrated by the fact that many
neurobiologists are increasingly moving toward neural network type simulations. One such
neurobiologist, Sejnowski, introduced a three-layer net which has made some excellent predictions
about how biological systems behave. Figure 2 illustrates this network consis
