Using and designing massively parallel computers for artificial neural networks

TL;DR: This paper studies the attempts to make ANN algorithms run on massively parallel computers as well as designs of new parallel systems tuned for ANN computing, and identifies different classes of parallel architectures used or designed for ANN.

The Self-Organizing Maps: Background, Theories, Extensions and Applications

TL;DR: Among various existing neural network architectures and learning algorithms, Kohonen’s selforganizing map (SOM) is one of the most popular neural network models and can provide topologically preserved mapping from input to output spaces.

Statistical mechanics of neural networks

TL;DR: A neural network is a large, highly interconnected assembly of simple elements that resemble biological neurons, which fire when the sum of the inputs from their synapses exceeds a “firing” threshold.

Hebbian plasticity requires compensatory processes on multiple timescales.

TL;DR: It is suggested that learning and memory rely on an intricate interplay of diverse plasticity mechanisms on different timescales which jointly ensure stability and plasticity of neural circuits.

Theory of Optical Information Storage in Solids

TL;DR: The theory of three-dimensional optical storage lends support to Beurle’s proposed mechanism of information storage in the brain, and makes three- dimensional storage very suitable for associative memories.

Holographic Model of Temporal Recall

TL;DR: It is shown that there is at least one other mathematical model, which is considered to be a closer analogue of holography, because it operates with triple products of the temporal function to be recognized or recalled.

Improved holographic model of temporal recall.

TL;DR: The modified static system described here is an alternative to Longuet-Higgins' model and takes account of the weaknesses of the nervous system as well as of its powers to imitate human memory with models.

The Classification of Modifiable Synapses and Their Use In Models For Conditioning

TL;DR: It is argued that if the conditioning and memory mechanisms of the nervous system store information by means of modifiable synapses, some of these must be of class B or C, and if the models are to be given the property of extinction, classical conditioning requires modifiablesynapses of classes A and B or of class C.
