Abstract :
In this work a design of a space-varying cellular neural network (CNN) in order to behave as an associative memory is presented. To this purpose, a new class of space-varying cellular neural networks with a nonsymmetric interconnection structure is considered. A stability analysis is firstly carried out. Then, a learning algorithm, based on the relaxation method, is used to compute the feedback parameters of the considered network. Simulation tests are reported to confirm the validity of the suggested approach
