An adaptive self-organizing neural tree called the structure-parameter
-adaptive (SPA) neural tree is presented in this paper. The SPA neural
tree can adapt to a changing environment parametrically and structura
lly. The SPA neural tree grows when new concepts are learned and shrin
ks when old concepts are disposed. It also makes parameter adaptation
to cope with small changes in the environment. The SPA neural tree is
suited to hierarchical classification. Its application to character pa
ttern recognition is also presented in this paper. When applied to cha
racter pattern recognition, it shows promising performance.
