Two optical implementations of production systems are advanced. The production systems operate on a knowledge base where facts and rules are encoded as formulas in propositional calculus. The first implementation is a binary neural network. An analog neural network is used to include reasoning with uncertainties. The second implementation uses a new optical symbolic substitution correlator. This implementation is useful when a set of similar situations has to be handled in parallel on one processor.
提出了生产系统的两种光学实现方式。生产系统在一个知识库上运行，其中事实和规则被编码为命题演算中的公式。第一种实现方式是二元神经网络。使用模拟神经网络来进行带有不确定性的推理。第二种实现方式使用了一种新型光学符号替换相关器。当必须在一个处理器上并行处理一组相似情况时，这种实现方式很有用。
