Background. The problem of parallel use of a set of statistical criteria aimed at testing one or another statistical hypothesis is considered. Materials and methods. As a rule, on small samples of 16 experiments, statistical tests give a high value of the probabilities of errors of the first and second kind. However, if we build an equivalent artificial neuron for each of the statistical criteria and combine them into a large network of artificial neurons, then we will get a long code with high redundancy. The reduction of the redundancy of such codes makes it possible to correct the errors of some statistical tests. Results. The paper presents functional dependencies and thresholds used in the software implementation of 9 basic criteria or artificial neurons equivalent to them. Conclusions. On the logarithmic scale of the probabilities of errors of the first and second kind for each criterion and on the logarithmic scale of the number of criteria generalized by the neural network, the self-correcting error correction code “by voting on the majority of bit states” is well described by a linear function.
