The Transformer architecture, underpinned by the self-attention mechanism, has become the de facto standard for sequence modeling tasks. However, its core computational primitive scales quadratically with sequence length (O(N^2)), creating…

A quantum storage device differs radically from a conventional physical storage device. Its state can be set to any value in a certain (infinite) state space, but in general every possible read operation yields only partial information…

When someone mentions the name of a known person we immediately recall her face and possibly many other traits. This is because we possess the so-called associative memory, that is the ability to correlate different memories to the same…

The discovery of neural plasticity has proved that throughout the life of a human being, the brain reorganizes itself through forming new neural connections. The formation of new neural connections are achieved through the brain's effort to…

Probabilistic Quantum Memory (PQM) is a data structure that computes the distance from a binary input to all binary patterns stored in superposition on the memory. This data structure allows the development of heuristics to speed up…

In [7] Krotov and Hopfield suggest a generalized version of the well-known Hopfield model of associative memory. In their version they consider a polynomial interaction function and claim that this increases the storage capacity of the…

We consider two models of Hopfield-like associative memory with $q$-valued neurons: Potts-glass neural network (PGNN) and parametrical neural network (PNN). In these models neurons can be in more than two different states. The models have…
