Analysis on Bidirectional Associative Memories with Multiplicative Weight Noise
نویسندگان
چکیده
In neural networks, network faults can be exhibited in different forms, such as node fault and weight fault. One kind of weight faults is due to the hardware or software precision. This kind of weight faults can be modelled as multiplicative weight noise. This paper analyzes the capacity of a bidirectional associative memory (BAM) affected by multiplicative weight noise. Assuming that weights are corrupted by multiplicative noise, we study how many number of pattern pairs can be stored as fixed points. Since capacity is not meaningful without considering the error correction capability, we also present the capacity of a BAM with multiplicative noise when there are some errors in the input pattern. Simulation results have been carried out to confirm our derivations.

Generalized Asymmetrical Bidirectional Associative Memory*
A classical bidirectional associative memory (BAM) suffers from low storage capacity and abundance of spurious memories though it has the properties of good generalization and noise immunity. In this paper, Hamming distance in recall procedure of usual asymmetrical BAM is replaced with modified Hamming distance by introducing weighting matrix into connection matrix. This generalization is valid...
متن کاملNoise-Enhanced Associative Memories
Recent advances in associative memory design through structured pattern sets and graph-based inference algorithms allow reliable learning and recall of exponential numbers of patterns. Though these designs correct external errors in recall, they assume neurons compute noiselessly, in contrast to highly variable neurons in hippocampus and olfactory cortex. Here we consider associative memories w...
متن کاملA 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 کاملOn the Recall Capability of Recurrent Exponential Fuzzy Associative Memories Based on Similarity Measures
Recurrent exponential fuzzy associative memories (RE-FAMs) are non-distributive memory models derived from the multivalued exponential recurrent associative memory (MERAM) of Chiueh and Tsai. A RE-FAM defines recursively a sequence of fuzzy sets obtained by a weighted average of the fundamental memories. In this paper, we show that the output of a single-step RE-FAM can be made as close as desi...
متن کاملSynthesis approach for bidirectional associative memories based on the perceptron training algorithm
Bidirectional associative memories are being used extensively for solving a variety of problems related to pattern recognition. In the present paper, a new synthesis approach is developed for bidirectional associative memories using feedback neural networks. The synthesis problem of bidirectional associative memories is formulated as a set of linear inequalities which can be solved using the pe...
