Mean-field theory for a spin-glass model of neural networks: TAP free energy and the paramagnetic to spin-glass transition

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: An approach is proposed to the Hopfield model where the mean-field treatment is made for a given set of stored patterns (sample) and then the statistical average over samples is taken. This corresponds to the approach made by Thouless, Anderson and Palmer (TAP) to the infinite-range model of spin glasses. Taking into account the fact that in the Hopfield model there exist correlations between different elements of the interaction matrix, we obtain its TAP free energy explicitly, which consists of a series of terms exhibiting the cluster effect. Nature of the spin-glass transition in the model is also examined and compared with those given by the replica method as well as the cavity method.
