Jd. Cao et Q. Tao, Estimation of the domain of attraction and the convergence rate of a Hopfield associative memory and an application, J COMPUT SY, 60(1), 2000, pp. 179-186
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. (C) 2000 Academic Press.
