Abstract
This paper discusses the design of multi-valued output functions of Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs) implementing associative memories. The output function of the CNNs is a piecewise linear function which consists of a saturation and non-saturation range. The new structure of the output function is defined, and is called the waveform. The saturation ranges with nlevels are generated by adding ni¾? 1 basic waveforms. Consequently, creating an associative memory of multi-valued patterns has been successful, and computer experiment results show the validity of the proposed method. The results of this research can expand the range of applications of CNNs as associative memories.
