Claim 24:
25. The computer system of claim 16, wherein:
the expanded neural network comprises a feedforward neural network that comprises p=0, . . . , P layers where P is greater than or equal to four, where the 0th layer is an input layer, the Pth layer is the output layer, and the p=1, . . . , (P−1) layers are hidden layers, such that, for p=1, . . . , (P−1), the pth layer is between the (p−1)th layer and the (p+1)th layer;
the new node set is for a hidden layer q of the expanded neural network, where q is a value ranging from 1 to (P−1), such that the one or more processing cores are configured, through programming, to merge the new node set and the base neural network by having each node of the new node set:
receive an incoming connection from each of one or more lower-order nodes of the expanded neural network, wherein each of the one or more lower-order nodes of the expanded neural network is on a layer of the expanded neural network ranging from the 0th to the (q−1)th layer of the expanded neural network; and
has an outgoing connection directly connected to one or more higher-order nodes of the expanded neural network, wherein each of the one or more higher-order nodes of the expanded neural network is on a layer of the expanded neural network ranging from the (q+1)th layer to the Pth layer of the expanded neural network.
