Abstract

The problem of finding of the deepest local minimum of a quadratic functional of binary variables is discussed. Our approach is based on the asynchronous neural dynamics and utilizes the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the connection matrix. We discuss the role of the largest eigenvalues. We report the results of intensive computer experiments with random matrices of large dimensions N ∼ 102 - 103.
