Stability of Rotor Hopfield Neural Networks With Synchronous Mode
Abstract:
A complex-valued Hopfield neural network (CHNN) is a model of a Hopfield neural network using multistate neurons. The stability conditions of CHNNs have been widely studied. A CHNN with a synchronous mode will converge to a fixed point or a cycle of length 2. A rotor Hopfield neural network (RHNN) is also a model of a multistate Hopfield neural network. RHNNs have much higher storage capacity and noise tolerance than CHNNs. We extend the theories regarding the stability of CHNNs to RHNNs. In addition, we investigate the stability of RHNNs with the projection rule. Although a CHNN with projection rule can be trapped at a cycle, an RHNN with projection rule converges to a fixed point. This is one of the great advantages of RHNNs.

Stability of Equilibrium Configuration
A stable equilibrium occurs when a system tends to return to its original position when given a small displacement, and the potential energy is at its minimum. An example of a stable equilibrium is when a cantilever beam is fixed at one end and a weight is attached to the other end. If the weight...
