Phases in a class of associative memories via hidden neurons
Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →The paper investigates associative memory in a bipartite Hopfield–Krotov architecture, termed class H, where hidden neurons serve as the retrieval order parameter. Using the replica method, it derives replica‑symmetric phase diagrams and closed‑form capacities for polynomial load, showing that crosstalk statistics are similar for Ising and spherical visible neurons. With a softmax hidden layer, the load becomes exponential, mapping the thermodynamics onto a random‑energy‑model that exhibits paramagnetic, condensed, and frozen phases, and revealing that heating destabilizes retrieval through quantized attention reassignments while Gaussian patterns remain metastable at all loads.
