NASA JSC neural network survey results
A survey of Artificial Neural Systems in support of NASA's (Johnson Space Center) Automatic Perception for Mission Planning and Flight Control Research Program was conducted. Several of the world's leading researchers contributed papers containing their most recent results on artificial neural systems. These papers were broken into categories and descriptive accounts of the results make up a large part of this report. Also included is material on sources of information on artificial neural systems such as books, technical reports, software tools, etc
Maximum Likelihood Associative Memories
Associative memories are structures that store data in such a way that it can
later be retrieved given only a part of its content -- a sort-of
error/erasure-resilience property. They are used in applications ranging from
caches and memory management in CPUs to database engines. In this work we study
associative memories built on the maximum likelihood principle. We derive
minimum residual error rates when the data stored comes from a uniform binary
source. Second, we determine the minimum amount of memory required to store the
same data. Finally, we bound the computational complexity for message
retrieval. We then compare these bounds with two existing associative memory
architectures: the celebrated Hopfield neural networks and a neural network
architecture introduced more recently by Gripon and Berrou
Weather prediction using a genetic memory
Kanaerva's sparse distributed memory (SDM) is an associative memory model based on the mathematical properties of high dimensional binary address spaces. Holland's genetic algorithms are a search technique for high dimensional spaces inspired by evolutional processes of DNA. Genetic Memory is a hybrid of the above two systems, in which the memory uses a genetic algorithm to dynamically reconfigure its physical storage locations to reflect correlations between the stored addresses and data. This architecture is designed to maximize the ability of the system to scale-up to handle real world problems
