Initial recognition rates for whole sentences are promising and show that the MS-TDNN architecture is suited to recognizing handwritten data ranging from single characters to whole sentences.
A real-time face tracker
The authors present a real-time face tracker that can track a person's face while the person moves freely in a room and can be applied to teleconferencing and many HCI applications including lip reading and gaze tracking.

It is shown that small networks trained to perform limited tasks develop time invariant, hidden abstractions that can be exploited to train larger, more complex nets efficiently, and phoneme recognition networks of increasing complexity can be constructed that all achieve superior recognition performance.
