Abstract :
A synthesis procedure for designing nonsymmetric cellular neural networks (CNN) with a predetermined local interconnection structure that will store a set of desired bipolar vectors as memory points is presented. A specific case of constructing Chinese characters is presented to demonstrate the applicability of the results. Simulation results show that all the vectors corresponding to 50 commonly used Chinese characters are reachable memory vectors of the synthesized CNN
