Optimal Capacity of the Blume-Emery-Griffiths perceptron
A Blume-Emery-Griffiths perceptron model is introduced and its optimal
capacity is calculated within the replica-symmetric Gardner approach, as a
function of the pattern activity and the imbedding stability parameter. The
stability of the replica-symmetric approximation is studied via the analogue of
the Almeida-Thouless line. A comparison is made with other three-state
perceptrons.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figure
A spherical Hopfield model
We introduce a spherical Hopfield-type neural network involving neurons and
patterns that are continuous variables. We study both the thermodynamics and
dynamics of this model. In order to have a retrieval phase a quartic term is
added to the Hamiltonian. The thermodynamics of the model is exactly solvable
and the results are replica symmetric. A Langevin dynamics leads to a closed
set of equations for the order parameters and effective correlation and
response function typical for neural networks. The stationary limit corresponds
to the thermodynamic results. Numerical calculations illustrate our findings.Comment: 9 pages Latex including 3 eps figures, Addition of an author in the
