Abstract

This Letter reviews four models of associative memory which generalize the operation of the Hamming associative memory: the grounded Hamming memory, the cellular Hamming memory, the decoupled Hamming memory, and the two-level decoupled Hamming memory. These memory models offer high performance and allow for a more practical hardware realization than the Hamming net and other fully interconnected neural net architectures.
