Robert Hecht-Nielsen, inventor of one of the earliest neurocomputers, defines a neural network as a computing system made up of a number of simple, highly interconnected processing elements which process information by their dynamic state responses to external inputs (Caudill |8~).
The drawback is that the solution offered by the neurocomputer cannot be as exact as the human-written version because, after all, it represents merely an approximation, a near-optimum solution.
Such hybrid machines are indeed beginning to appear under the label of neurocomputers.
