Holographic Associative Memory is part of the family of analog, correlation-based, associative, stimulus-response memories, where information is mapped onto the phase orientation of complex numbers operating. It can be considered as a complex valued artificial neural network. The holographic associative memory exhibits some remarkable characteristics. Holographs have been shown to be effective for associative memory tasks, generalization, and pattern recognition with changeable attention. Ability of dynamic search localization is central to natural memory. For example, in visual perception, human always tends to focus on some specific objects in the pattern. Humans can effortlessly change the focus from object to object without requiring relearning. It provides a computational model which can mimic this ability by creating representation for focus. At the heart of this new memory lie a novel bi-modal representation of pattern, and a hologram like complex spherical weight state-space. Besides the usual advantages of associative computing, this technique also has excellent potential for fast optical realization, because the underlying hyper-spherical computations can be naturally implemented on optical computations.
