A single-layer neural network with 4$\times$4 input neurons and 4 output neurons is optically implemented. Holographic lenslet arrays are used for the e optical interconnection topology, a liquid crystal light valve(LCLV) is used for controlling optical interconection weights. Using a Perceptron learning rule, it classifics input patterns into 4 different categories. It is shown that the performance of the adaptive neural network depends on the learning rate, the correlation of input patterns, and the nonlinear characteristic properties of the liquid crystal light valve.
