4 unusual facts about perceptron


Frank Rosenblatt

Frank Rosenblatt (11 July 1928 – 11 July 1971) was a New York City born psychologist who completed the Perceptron, or MARK 1, computer at Cornell University in 1960.

Hyperplane

Affine hyperplanes are used to define decision boundaries in many machine learning algorithms such as linear-combination (oblique) decision trees, and Perceptrons.

Perceptron

The perceptron algorithm was invented in 1957 at the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory by Frank Rosenblatt.


Part-of-speech tagging

Methods such as SVM, Maximum entropy classifier, Perceptron, and Nearest-neighbor have all been tried, and most can achieve accuracy above 95%.

Position weight matrix

The perceptron algorithm was suggested by Polish American mathematician Andrzej Ehrenfeucht in order to create a matrix of weights which could distinguish true binding sites from other non-functional sites with similar sequences.
