| Abstract: |
A method to generate recognition, auto-adaptation and self-organization in autonomous mechanisms and organisms. A number of sensing elements generate analog signals whose amplitudes are classified into different classes of perception intensity. The currently occurring elapse times between phase transitions are recorded and compared with prior recorded elapse times in order to find covariant time sequences and patterns. A motion actuating system can be coupled to the assembly, which is controlled by pulse sequences that have been modulated in accordance with the covariant time sequences. In this way the mechanism or organism in motion is prompted to emulate the found covariant time sequences, while being able to recognize its own motion course and adapting itself to changes of environment.

What is claimed is:
1. A method to generate recognition, auto-adaptation and self-organizing processes in autonomous systems, including the steps of:
- a) providing a device for sensing the temporal-spatial variations between the physical state of said system and the physical state of the surroundings of said system, the device comprising:
- sensor means coupled to said system to produce analog signals;
- receiving means connected to said sensor means to receive said analog signals;
- threshold value detector means connected to said receiving means to classify said received;
- analog signals into classes according to signal amplitudes;
- time recording means connected to said threshold value detector means to record elapse times;
- time analyzing means connected to said time recording means;
- b) recording the current elapse times between phase transitions through said threshold values,
- c) analyzing said elapse times to find covariant elapse time sequences within currently recorded elapse times, said elapse time sequences being covariant with sequences of prior recorded elapse times.
