An error absorbing system in a neuron computer

An error absorbing system for absorbing errors through a weight correction is provided in a neuron computer for receiving an analog input signal (Din) through a first analog bus in a time divisional manner, performing a sum-of-the-products operation (22, 23, 24), and outputting an analog output signal (Dout) to a second analog bus. The error absorbing system comprises a dummy node (6, 19A, 19B, 111) for producing a fixed voltage to an analog bus in a test mode, the dummy node (6, 19A, 19B, 111) being connected to the analog bus of the neural network (18), an error measuring unit (20) for compulsorily inputting 0 volts to the first analog bus (Din) through the dummy node (6, 19A, 19B, 111) in a first state of a test mode and for detecting an offset voltage produced in an analog neuron processor (11, ANP, ANP1,...) through the second analog bus (Dout), a weight correcting unit (19) for, in a second state of the test mode, determining a temporary weight between the dummy node (6, 19A, 19B, 111) and the neuron processor (11, ANP, ANP1,...), the temporary weight being multiplied by the fixed voltage produced by the dummy node (6, 19A, 19B, 111), based on an offset voltage of respective neuron processors (11, ANP, ANP1,...) for calculating a correct weight using a gain based on the detection output voltage outputted from the second analog bus (Dout), and a weight memory (14, 185, 186) for storing the weight corrected by the weight correcting unit (19).
