| Research Abstract |
We have proposed and designed a neural AI system (NAIS) including both features of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and MBR (Memory-Based Reasoning). The NAIS requires a massively-parallel processor (e.g., the Connection Machine) , where the optical interconnection is regarded to be more appropriate than the metal interconnection for such a huge system, but it must be experimentally verified.
During the first year we implemented a software simulator for verification of a system combining a neural network with a memory-based reasoning system (including a rule-based system). An optical interconnection is also simulated.
During the second year we investigated an optical interconnection system for a massively-parallel neural AI system, and a memory-connected system based on the optical bus is verified to be an excellent system for massively-parallel processing. An MCM configuration is also proposed. Moreover, we discussed the realization of a massively-parallel neural AI system and the optical interconnection.
As result, we clarified the direction for development of a massively-parallel neural AI system using the optical interconnection.
