It has 64 inputs and ten outputs. The soft threshold is implemented by a liquid crystal light valve. Experimental results on perceptron recall are also reported. The effect of a modified grey-scale to weight mapping for weight levels implemented by LCTVs is evaluated based on the results of handwritten digit recognition.}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/1997/rr97-16.pdf}, postscript = {ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/reports/1997/rr97-16.ps.gz}, ipdmembership={learning}, }
