Abstract

Recently the morphological associative memory proposed by Ritter attracts researcher's attention. The model is superior to other models in terms of memory capacity and perfect recall rate. However the conventional MAM has a problem that the correct pattern cannot be recalled if a pattern has inclusive relation to other stored pattern. In this paper, as one of the solutions, an effective MAM employing a reverse recall is proposed. In the proposed method, candidate patterns of an input can be estimated by reverse recall from the kernel image recalled by a given inclusion input pattern, and then the plausible recall pattern can be determined by comparing the candidates with input pattern. We confirm the validity of the proposed method through hetero association experiments for twenty six alphabet patterns with inclusion patterns.
