Abstract

We derive analytical expressions of local codimension-1 bifurcations for a fully connected, additive, discrete-time recurrent neural network (RNN), where we regard the external inputs as bifurcation parameters. The complexity of the bifurcation diagrams obtained increases exponentially with the number of neurons. We show that a three-neuron cascaded network can serve as a universal oscillator, whose amplitude and frequency can be completely controlled by input parameters.
