Abstract
During the last few years, connectionist models obviously evolved. In particular, modular models involving several types of architectures or algorithms now replace the “one-block” original networks (Bechtel, 1993). When designing these architectures, it’s possible to point out many kinds of inter-networks cooperations. The cortical automata model (Burnod, 1988) is especially well suited to the implementation of such relationships. We present a vision system having invariance capabilities acquired through active exploration of the environment (Otto & al, 1992; Boutkhil & al., 1992; Marchal, 1992) that serves to illustrate the ways such networks may cooperate.
