Quantum Hopfield neural network
Quantum computing allows for the potential of significant advancements in
both the speed and the capacity of widely used machine learning techniques.
Here we employ quantum algorithms for the Hopfield network, which can be used
for pattern recognition, reconstruction, and optimization as a realization of a
content-addressable memory system. We show that an exponentially large network
can be stored in a polynomial number of quantum bits by encoding the network
into the amplitudes of quantum states. By introducing a classical technique for
operating the Hopfield network, we can leverage quantum algorithms to obtain a
quantum computational complexity that is logarithmic in the dimension of the
data. We also present an application of our method as a genetic sequence
recognizer.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figures, final versio

Self-organizing peer-to-peer social networks
This is the author's accepted manuscript. The final published article is available from the link below. Copyright @ 2008 The Authors.Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems provide a new solution to distributed information and resource sharing because of its outstanding properties in decentralization, dynamics, flexibility, autonomy, and cooperation, summarized as DDFAC in this paper. After a detailed analysis of the current P2P literature, this paper suggests to better exploit peer social relationships and peer autonomy to achieve efficient P2P structure design. Accordingly, this paper proposes Self-organizing peer-to-peer social networks (SoPPSoNs) to self-organize distributed peers in a decentralized way, in which neuron-like agents following extended Hebbian rules found in the brain activity represent peers to discover useful peer connections. The self-organized networks capture social associations of peers in resource sharing, and hence are called P2P social networks. SoPPSoNs have improved search speed and success rate as peer social networks are correctly formed. This has been verified through tests on real data collected from the Gnutella system. Analysis on the Gnutella data has verified that social associations of peers in reality are directed, asymmetric and weighted, validating the design of SoPPSoN. The tests presented in this paper have also evaluated the scalability of SoPPSoN, its performance under varied initial network connectivity and the effects of different learning rules.National Natural Science of Foundation of Chin
Self-organized learning in multi-layer networks
We present a framework for the self-organized formation of high level learning by a statistical preprocessing of features. The paper focuses first on the formation of the features in the context of layers of feature processing units as a kind of resource-restricted associative multiresolution learning We clame that such an architecture must reach maturity by basic statistical proportions, optimizing the information processing capabilities of each layer. The final symbolic output is learned by pure association of features of different levels and kind of sensorial input. Finally, we also show that common error-correction learning for motor skills can be accomplished also by non-specific associative learning.
