Associative Memory Implementation with Artificial Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
The first description of ANN integrated circuit implements a continuous time analog circuit for AM. The design used a 22 x 22 matrix with 20,000 transistors, averaging 40 transistors per node to implement a Hopfield AM network. The design faced a scalability challenge at higher levels of integration. The paper advocates handling larger problems by a collection of smaller networks or hierarchical solutions, while predicting, “Significantly different connection technologies” as essential for success in larger systems.

A Study on Associative Neural Memories
Memory plays a major role in Artificial Neural Networks. Without memory, Neural Network can not be learned itself. One of the primary concepts of memory in neural networks is Associative neural memories. A survey has been made on associative neural memories such as Simple associative memories (SAM), Dynamic associative memories (DAM), Bidirectional Associative memories (BAM), Hopfield memories,...

متن کاملA "spiking" bidirectional associative memory for modeling intermodal priming
Starting from a modular artificial neural system modelling the integration of several perceptive stimuli, this article proposes a new implementation of the central module performing a multimodal associative memory. A Bidirectional Associative Memory (BAM) has been emulated in temporal coding with spiking neurons. Since input patterns are dynamically encoded, the effects of the latency of evocat...
