   • Therefore an image processing technique that utilises a trainable n-tuple pattern recognition algorithm is under investigation. 1999, D. Chan,1 S. Hockaday, R.D. Tillett, and L.G. Ross, 7th International Conference on Image Processing and its Applications: A trainable n-tuple pattern classifier and its application for monitoring fish underwater http://scitation.aip.org/getabs/servlet/GetabsServlet?prog=normal&id=IEECPS0019990CP465000255000001&idtype=cvips&gifs=yes
   • Two probabilistic interpretations of the n-tuple recognition method are put forward in order to allow this technique to be analysed with the same Bayesian methods used in connection with other neural network models. 1995, Rohwer, R.J., Fourth International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks: Two Bayesian treatments of the n-tuple recognition method, Aston Univ., Birmingham http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=497811
   • The continuous n-tuple classifier was proposed by the author as a new type of n-tuple classifier that is ideally suited to problems where the input is continuous or multi-level rather than binary. 1998, S.M.
