A semiconductor integrated circuit capable of effecting data matching at a high speed is provided by using a simple circuit. The semiconductor integrated circuit includes at least one first input terminal and at least one second input terminal to which a voltage signal is inputted, and at least one output terminal. A predetermined signal is produced at the output terminal when the difference between values expressed by the two signals inputted to the first and second input terminals becomes smaller than a predetermined value. The semiconductor integrated circuit of this invention contains at least two inverters constituted of neuron MOS transistors, and the two signals described above or signals obtained by applying predetermined processing to the two signals are inputted to at least one of the input gates of the inverters.

A novel computing device capable of performing flexible information processing analogous to that of living things, such as learning, adaption, and self-multiplication, which are essential to implement advanced information processing of the future. The device comprises a plurality of first and second input terminals, and a plurality of operational units which execute a given operation of data signals to be inputted into the first input terminals, and each have at least one terminal for outputting the result of the operation. The output signal from one of the output terminals or the result of a given operational processing of this output signal is inputted into at least one of the second input terminals.

A semiconductor circuit for arithmetic operation, which uses a reduced circuit area and provides high-speed processing by restricting nonessentials. The semiconductor circuit comprises an arithmetic circuit (adders 1-3) and delay means (memory 4). The arithmetic circuit includes arithmetic units for operation on input data, and they operate on digits of input data in a period of operation time, and produce results of operation, together with data corresponding to a carry, if any. The output from the arithmetic circuit is delayed by one period of operation time through the delay means.

Data compression using vector quantization is performed at a high speed by using hardware. Among a plurality of template patterns, a template pattern most similar to the input pattern is searched. For this, a template pattern calculating similarity by using feature amounts of the input pattern and the template pattern is selected. When calculating the similarity between the selected template pattern and the input pattern, the calculation is performed by a bit serial way so as to reduce the number of templates requiring matching by a pattern matching processing in the vector quantization and reduce the number of cycles required for calculation of the matching, thereby executing the data compression using the vector quantization at a high speed.

A CMOS device comprises a structure formed on the (100) face of a silicon substrate and having another crystal face, and a p-channel MOS transistor and an n-channel MOS transistor each having a high-quality gate insulating film formed on the structure by microwave plasma processing and a gate electrode formed on the gate insulating film. The dimensions and shape of the structure are so set that the carrier mobility in the p-channel MOS transistor and that in the N-channel MOS transistor are balanced.
