In this paper we show that two ellipsoid algorithms can be used to train single-layer neural networks with general staircase nonlinearities. The ellipsoid algorithms have several advantages over other conventional training approaches including (1) explicit convergence results and automatic determination of linear separability, (2) an elimination of problems with picking initial values for the weights, (3) guarantees that the trained weights are in some “acceptable region,” (4) certain “robustness” characteristics, and (5) a training approach for neural networks with a wider variety of activation functions. We illustrate the training approach by training the MAJ function and then by showing how to train a controller for a reaction chamber temperature control problem.

A gas reaction chamber has been designed and constructed for the JEM 7A transmission electron microscope which is based on a notably successful design by Hashimoto et. al. but which provides specimen tilting facilities of ± 15° aboutany axis in the plane of the specimen.It has been difficult to provide tilting facilities on environmental chambers for 100 kV microscopes owing to the fundamental lack of available space within the objective lens and the scope of structural investigations possible during dynamic experiments has been limited with previous specimen chambers not possessing this facility.A cross sectional diagram of the specimen chamber is shown in figure 1. The specimen is placed on a platinum ribbon which is mounted on a mica ring of the type shown in figure 2. The ribbon is heated by direct current, and a thermocouple junction spot welded to the section of the ribbon of reduced cross section enables temperature measurement at the point where localised heating occurs.
