Madaline

Madaline(Multiple Adaline) is a two layer neural network with a set of ADALINEs in parallel as its input layer and a single PE (processing element) in its output layer. For problems with multiple input variables and one output, each input is applied to one Adaline. For similar problems with multiple outputs, madalines in parallel can be used. The madaline network is useful for problems which involve prediction based on multiple inputs, such as weather forecasting (Input variables: barometric pressure, difference in pressure. Output variables: rain, cloudy, sunny).
