CS 420/594 Project 3 - Attractor Net

Due  Nov. 29, 2004

General Description

For Undergraduate Credit

  1. Generate 50 random bipolar vectors (n = 100).
  2. For p = 1, ..., 50, imprint the first p patterns on a Hopfield net.
  3. Determine pstable, the number of stable imprinted patterns.  A pattern is considered unstable if any of its bits are unstable, that is, of opposite sign to their local field hi.  Compute the probability of an imprinted pattern being stable, Pstable = pstable / p.  (Note that Pstable and pstable are different; this is Bar-Yam's notation, which I've retained for consistency with the book.)
  4. Repeat the forgoing for several sets of 50 random patterns and average over them.
