Mc C ulloch– P itts Neurons
James A. D. W. Anderson · Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science · 2005
Abstract The ‘McCulloch–Pitts neuron’ is an abstraction of the computational functions of a biological neuron. This model ‘neuron’ has two states, on or off, it sums activation from other neurons, and it enters the on‐state when the sum of its inputs exceeds a threshold. Networks composed of such abstract “neurons” can compute any finite logical expression.
