Hi Manuel,

This is, indeed, the correct list for your question.

The reason the classifier is also connected to the sensor is because it
needs access to the original data values in order to translate the output
of the CLA into something meaningful to the user. It may also be asked to
"solve for" a field which is not being shown to the CLA.

The classifier essentially creates a statistical mapping between an SDR
(from the SP or TP) and the values in the input data.

I hope that answers your question.

Regards,

Fergal Byrne
