We investigated the properties of mixed states in a sparsely encoded associative memory model with a structural learning method. When mixed states are made of s memory patterns, s types of mixed states, which become equilibrium states of…
When mixed states are composed of s memory patterns, s types of mixed states, which can become equilibrium states of the model, can be generated. We previously reported that storage capacities for most mixed states composed of uncorrelated…
We discuss the properties of equilibrium states in an autoassociative memory model storing hierarchically correlated patterns (hereafter, hierarchical patterns). We will show that symmetric mixed states (hereafter, mixed states) are…
Several guiding principles for thought processes are proposed and a neural-network-type model implementing these principles is presented and studied. We suggest to consider thinking within an associative network built-up of overlapping…

We study various models of associative memories with sparse information, i.e. a pattern to be stored is a random string of $0$s and $1$s with about $\log N$ $1$s, only. We compare different synaptic weights, architectures and retrieval…
Little is known theoretically about the associative memory capabilities of neural networks in which information is encoded not only in the mean firing rate but also in the timing of firings. Particularly, in the case that the fraction of…
We consider the class of Hopfield models of associative memory with activation function $F$ and state space $\{-1,1\}^N$, where each vertex of the cube describes a configuration of $N$ binary neurons. $M$ randomly chosen configurations,…
We study a simple extended model of oscillator neural networks capable of storing sparsely coded phase patterns, in which information is encoded both in the mean firing rate and in the timing of spikes. Applying the methods of statistical…
Memory-augmented neural networks consisting of a neural controller and an external memory have shown potentials in long-term sequential learning. Current RAM-like memory models maintain memory accessing every timesteps, thus they do not…

We present a Hopfield-like autoassociative network for memories representing examples of concepts. Each memory is encoded by two activity patterns with complementary properties. The first is dense and correlated across examples within…
Basic experimental findings about human working memory can be described by an algebra built on high-dimensional binary states, representing information items, and two operations: multiplication for binding and addition for bundling. In…
Associative memories are data structures that allow retrieval of stored messages from part of their content. They thus behave similarly to human brain that is capable for instance of retrieving the end of a song given its beginning. Among…
Information inflow into a computational system is by a sequence of information items. Cognitive computing, i.e. performing transformations along that sequence, requires to represent item information as well as sequential information. Among…
Cyclically sheared jammed packings form memories of the shear amplitude at which they were trained by falling into periodic orbits where each particle returns to the identical position in subsequent cycles. While simple models that treat…
Associative memory models retrieve stored information through content-based addressing, mimicking the neural processes of animal brains. The classical Hopfield network-based models store memories as vectors of discrete values and have good…
Memory is a complex phenomenon that involves several distinct mechanisms. These mechanisms operate at different spatial and temporal levels. This chapter focuses on the theoretical framework and the mathematical models that have been…
Generalized Hopfield models with higher-order or exponential interaction terms are known to have substantially larger storage capacities than the classical quadratic model. On the other hand, associative memories for sparse patterns, such…
