Abstract
In this paper, the domain of attraction of memory patterns and the exponent ial convergence rate of the network trajectories to memory patterns for Hop field continuous associative memory are estimated. These results can be use d for the evaluation of fault-tolerance capability and the synthesis proced ures for Hopfield continuous feedback associative memory neural networks an d they are easy to check and apply in practice.
