Chaotic Memory Search in Fuzzy Associative Memory System

Abstract

In this paper, a chaotic fuzzy associative memory system is proposed, in which the chaotic memory search is applied to a fuzzy associative memory system in order to support human creative thinking. It is shown by means of simulation results for examples that this system has the following functions. (1)The function that the patterns which are memorized and within a limited distance from an input pattern are retrieved dynamically. (2)The function that the patterns which are not memorized but available as a fuzzy rule are retrieved. Lastly, it is showed that even if a retrieved pattern is not desirable one for users, other desirable ones can be retrieved by function (1), and it becomes easy for users to think creatively since they are given hints for creative thinking by function (2).
