Neural engineering utility with adaptive algorithms
First Claim
1. An artificial intelligence diagnostic and test system which serves as an interface between a set of units under test and automatic test equipment which sends test signals to the units under test, said artificial intelligence diagnostic and test system monitoring reaction signals from said units under test to provide users with adjustable test and diagnostic sequences, said artificial intelligence diagnostic and test system comprising:
- a means for selecting test sequences to be performed by said automatic test equipment on said units under test, said selecting means directing said automatic test equipment to send preselected test signals to said units under test on command,a means for diagnosing said reaction signals from said units under test;
a means for providing users with both verbal control and machine message control of test activities, anda means for interpreting alternative test technologies as they interact with said units under test, said alternative test technologies comprising infrared systems, radio frequency detection system and x-ray measurement systems which scan said units under test and provide said interpreting means with indicators of operability that do not require a response to a stimulus by said unit under test.

Abstract
Neural Engineering Utility With Adaptive Algorithms (NEUWAA) is an artificial intelligence system for Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) which integrates various technologies in an adaptive fault-detection environment. Various technologies, other than normal ATE stimulus/reaction, including Infrared, X-ray, RF detection, etc. perceive non-visible information of current flow and circuit activity which can significantly enhance the technician'"'"'s perception of defective components. The system includes ATE adaptive algorithms to streamline test sequences and diagnostics. NEUWAA provides active schematics and active Unit Under Test (UUT) layouts. NEUWAA consists of diagnostic algorithms for specific pre-test information, specific test selection information, and specific diagnostic information. NEUWAA is a WINDOWS based utility. NEUWAA interacts with other Windows & DOS applications to provide and interoperate in a client server software environment. NEUWAA is a stand alone product which has no dependence on other technologies like Infrared, X-ray, RF, etc. NEUWAA does provide a link and algorithmic software for information exchange between these technologies.
