The preface of Rosenblatt’s report 85-460-1 (January 1957) says that the work was supported by the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory’s internal research program, that its concepts came from the author’s research in physiological psychology aimed at a brain analogue, that the perceptron concept is “a recent product of this research program”, and that the current effort aims at the perceptron’s technical and economic feasibility.

One recorded claim. The claim panel gives its qualification, the source passages with their place in each source, and how it was checked.
