Novel Ceiling Neuron Model and its Applications

In this research paper, a novel neuronal model named "Ceiling Neuron" has been proposed. Learning algorithm and proof of convergence of such a model are discussed. An activation function which mimics the ceiling behavior is proposed for Multi - Layer Neural Networks. The dynamic nature of the proposed activation function is discussed. An associative memory model based on Hopfield network is constructed using the proposed ceiling neuron and dynamics of the network are also studied.
