The Interconnection Tensor Rank and the Neural Network Storage Capacity

Neural network properties are considered in the case of the interconnection tensor rank being higher than two. This sort of interconnection tensor occurs in realization of crossbar-based neural networks. It is intrinsic for a crossbar design to suffer from parasitic currents. It is shown that the interconnection tensor of a certain form makes the neural network much more efficient: the storage capacity and basin of attraction of the network increase considerably. A network like the Hopfield one is used in the study.
