A Statistical Convergence Aplication for the Hopfield Networks

When Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) are going to be used as Pattern Recognition systems, the problem to be considered is how to impose prescribed prototype vectors ξ^1,ξ^2,...,ξ^p as fixed points. The synaptic matrix W should be interpreted as a sort of sign correlation matrix of the prototypes, In the classical approach. The weak point in this approach, comes from the fact that it does not have the appropriate tools to deal efficiently with the correlation between the state vectors and the prototype vectors The capacity of the net is very poor because one can only know if one given vector is adequately correlated with the prototypes or not and we are not able to know what its exact correlation degree. The interest of our approach lies precisely in the fact that it provides these tools. In this paper, a geometrical vision of the dynamic of states is explained. A fixed point is viewed as a point in the Euclidean plane R2. The retrieving procedure is analyzed trough statistical frequency distribution of the prototypes. The capacity of the net is improved and the spurious states are reduced. In order to clarify and corroborate the theoretical results, together with the formal theory, an application is presented

Almost Separable Data Aggregation by Layers of Formal Neurons

Information extraction or knowledge discovery from large data sets should be linked to data aggregation process. Data aggregation process can result in a new data representation with decreased number of objects of a given set. A deterministic approach to separable data aggregation means a lesser number of objects without mixing of objects from different categories. A statistical approach is less restrictive and allows for almost separable data aggregation with a low level of mixing of objects from different categories. Layers of formal neurons can be designed for the purpose of data aggregation both in the case of deterministic and statistical approach. The proposed designing method is based on minimization of the of the convex and piecewise linear (CPL) criterion functions.

Boundary-Value Problems for almost Nonlinear Singularly Perturbed Systems of Ordinary Differential Equations

A boundary-value problems for almost nonlinear singularly perturbed systems of ordinary differential equations are considered. An asymptotic solution is constructed under some assumption and using boundary functions and generalized inverse matrix and projectors.

Topological Dichotomy and Unconditional Convergence

In this paper, we give a criterion for unconditional convergence with respect to some summability methods, dealing with the topological size of the set of choices of sign providing convergence. We obtain similar results for boundedness. In particular, quasi-sure unconditional convergence implies unconditional convergence.

Stability of the Iteration Method for non Expansive Mappings

The general iteration method for nonexpansive mappings on a Banach space is considered. Under some assumption of fast enough convergence on the sequence of (“almost” nonexpansive) perturbed iteration mappings, if the basic method is τ−convergent for a suitable topology τ weaker than the norm topology, then the perturbed method is also τ−convergent. Application is presented to the gradient-prox method for monotone inclusions in Hilbert spaces.

On a Class Almost Contact Manifolds with Norden Metric

Certain curvature properties and scalar invariants of the mani- folds belonging to one of the main classes almost contact manifolds with Norden metric are considered. An example illustrating the obtained results is given and studied.

Linear Connections on Normal Almost Contact Manifolds with Norden Metric

Families of linear connections are constructed on almost con- tact manifolds with Norden metric. An analogous connection to the symmetric Yano connection is obtained on a normal almost contact manifold with Norden metric and closed structural 1-form. The curvature properties of this connec- tion are studied on two basic classes of normal almost contact manifolds with Norden metric.
