This paper presents an analysis of a random access memory (RAM)-based associative memory which uses a weighted voting scheme for information retrieval. This weighted voting memory can operate in heteroassociative or autoassociative mode, can store both real-valued and binary-valued patterns and, unlike memory models, is equipped with a rejection mechanism. A theoretical analysis of the performance of the weighted voting memory is given for the case of binary and random memory sets. Performance measures are derived as a function of the model parameters: pattern size, window size, and number of patterns in the memory set. It is shown that the weighted voting model has large capacity and error correction. The results show that the weighted voting model can successfully achieve high-detection and -identification rates and, simultaneously, low-false-acceptance rates.

D016571	Neural Networks, Computer	A computer architecture, implementable in either hardware or software, modeled after biological neural networks. Like the biological system in which the processing capability is a result of the interconnection strengths between arrays of nonlinear processing nodes, computerized neural networks, often called perceptrons or multilayer connectionist models, consist of neuron-like units. A homogeneous group of units makes up a layer. These networks are good at pattern recognition. They are adaptive, performing tasks by example, and thus are better for decision-making than are linear learning machines or cluster analysis. They do not require explicit programming.
