Goldfarb, Lev2023-03-012023-03-01https://unbscholar.lib.unb.ca/handle/1882/14703A new general methodology for design of pattern recognition systems is proposed. 'This methodology is based on the new approach to pattern recognition proposed by the author. The principles of the design considered here should also be of use in the design of some complex database systems and error-correcting systems.
