Hello, I am doing some research on the convergence of the Hopfield net. Would anyone know of any papers or other sources of information on the subject ? Any help would be very much appreciated.

Are you discussing the "learning" rule here, or rather activations update? In my opinion, "convergence" is not a very well-chosen term for Hopfield networks, it gives that bp-ish feeling which misleads since their behaviour is deterministic.

They thanked him much for that. /\/\ \ / Organisation: Faculty of Mathematics & Computer Science / \ University of Amsterdam, Kruislaan 403, _ \/\/ _ NL-1098 SJ Amsterdam, The Netherlands | | | | Phone: +31 20 525 7524 | | /\/\ | | Fax: +31 20 525 7490 | | \ / | | | | / \ | | email: smagt@fwi.uva.nl | | \/\/ | | | \______/ | \________/ /\/\ ``The opinions expressed herein are the author's only and do \ / not necessarily reflect those of the University of Amsterdam.'' / \ \/\/ -- P.S.
