The model is made of $N$ neurons and each of them is connected to $K$ input neurons chosen at random in the network. The synapses are $n$-states variables which evolve in time according to Stochastic Learning rules; a parallel stochastic dynamics is assumed for neurons. Since the network maintains the same dynamics whether it is engaged in computation or in learning new memories, a very low probability of synaptic transitions is assumed. In the limit $N\\to\\infty$ with $K$ large and finite, the correlations of neurons and synapses can be neglected and the dynamics can be analitically calculated by flow equations for the macroscopic parameters of the system.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1997-05-19T11:16:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "neural network", "adapting synapses", "input neurons chosen", "parallel stochastic dynamics", "states variables" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
