Abstract
We propose a network of oscillators to retrieve given patterns in which the oscillators keep a fixed phase relationship with one another. In this description, the phase and the amplitude of the oscillators can be regarded as the timing and the strength of the neuronal spikes, respectively. Using the amplitudes for encoding, we enable the network to realize not only oscillatory states but also non-firing states. In addition, it is shown that under suitable conditions the system has a Lyapunov function ensuring a stable retrieval process. Finally, the associative memory capability of the network is demonstrated numerically.
