Abstract

Associative memories are one of the popular applications of neural networks and several studies on their extension to the complex domain have been done. One of the important factors to characterize behavior of a complex-valued neural network is its activation function which is a nonlinear complex function. In complex-valued neural networks, there are several possibilities in choosing an activation function because of a wide variety of complex functions. This paper proposes three models of orthogonal type dynamic associative memories using complex-valued neural networks with three different activation functions. We investigate their behavior as associative memories theoretically. Comparisons are also made among these three models in terms of dynamics and storage capabilities.
