Saturation Level of the Hopfield Model for Neural Network

Crisanti, A, Amit, D. J, Gutfreund, H·1986·Europhysics Letters (EPL)

Abstract

The Hopfield model of a neural network is studied for p = α N , where p is the number of memorized patterns and N the number of neurons. The averaging over the quenched randomness is performed with the replica method, with replica symmetry broken once. It is shown that the critical value of α increases from 0.138 to 0.144, in excellent agreement with simulation results. For 0.138 < α ⩽ 0.144 retrieval states exist only with replica symmetry breaking. Wherever the difference between the replica symmetric solution and the broken symmetry solution is numerically detectable, symmetry breaking improves the retrieval. At α c the number of errors decreases from 1.5% to 0.9%.

    “…the 80s, the words “Associative Memory Network" have closely echoed with “Hopfield Network" [Hopfield, 1982, 1984], and a plethora of subsequent works have endeavored to provide a detailed picture of the properties of such networks [Amit et al., 1987a, Crisanti et al., 1986, Treves and Amit, 1988].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
