1. An artificial neuron component, comprising:

  • (a.) at least one artificial synapse, comprising;

    (1.) a connection means that connects an input signal to be conveyed to said artificial synapse, and(2.) a plurality of means for storing or supplying a plurality of respective synapse weights or synapse weight values, and(3.) a synapse modulating means for modulating said input signal by each of said plurality of respective synapse weights or synapse weight values, thereby to produce a plurality of respective results determined by modulating said input signal by said plurality of respective synapse weights or synapse weight values,(b.) a summing means for accumulating said plurality of respective results of said synapse modulating means as an internal sum, and(c.) a transfer conversion means for subjecting said internal sum accumulated by said summing means to a predetermined transfer function to provide a resultant output value,(d.) a plurality of weight adjustment means, each comprising a predetermined learning means for adjusting a respective one of the synapse weight values within said artificial synapse, and for correcting the value of said respective one of the synapse weight values within said artificial synapse as a function of said predetermined learning means,whereby each of said plurality of weight adjustment means will train each of said plurality of respective synapse weights or synapse weight values using a distinct predetermined learning means, and a distinct predetermined learning rate, providing each of said plurality of respective synapse weights or synapse weight values with a distinct predetermined learning acquisition time, and the output of said transfer conversion means is a representation of said input signal, modulated by each of said plurality of respective synapse weights or synapse weight values within said artificial synapse.
