Enlightened by the fundamental idea of MCS, the ensemble is introduced into the quick learning for bidirectional associative memory (QLBAM) to construct a BAM ensemble, for improving the storage capacity and the error-correction capability without destroying the simple structure of the component BAM. Simulations show that, with an appropriate "overproduce and choose" strategy or "thinning" algorithm, the proposed BAM ensemble significantly outperforms the single QLBAM in both storage capacity and noise-tolerance capability.展开更多

According to the current probe vector, the connection weights matrix could be chosen dynamically. Double-valued and multi-valued associative memory are all realized in our simulation experiment. The experimental results show that the method could enhance the associative success rate.展开更多

Stability criteria dependent on external inputs of neural networks are derived. The designed networks can retrieve the stored patterns by external inputs rather than initial conditions. The derivation can memorize the desired patterns with lower-dimensional neural networks than real-valued neural networks, and eliminate spurious equilibria of complex-valued neural networks. One numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness and superiority of the presented results.展开更多

It not only possesses merits of the BAM, but also relaxes the continuity assumption for reliable recalls and significantly improves the storage capacity and error correcting capability of the BAM. However, Tai′s performance analysis for the HOBAM is only limited in the computer simulations, in the other words, they did not give a theoretical analysis result. This paper fills the blank and gives a theoretical proof for HOBAM′s stability and storage capacity analysis so that the system can theoretically ensure all the training pattern pairs to become its stable points.展开更多
