Comparison between theory and simulation for the two-level decoupled Hamming associative memory

This paper presents simulations of the capacity and error correction capability of the two-level decoupled Hamming network. The simulation results presented here are compared to the theoretically predicted results derived in the authors´ previous paper (Ikeda et al. (1998)). In this analysis, we study capacity as a function of system dimension, window size, and noise. It is demonstrated that the two-level memory has a large capacity in the case of uniform random fundamental patterns, and that there is close agreement between the theoretical and empirical results
