Abstract

In this paper we continue the analysis of some structures with potentialities for Artificial Intelligence (AI) devices. We follow the suggestions of J.J. Hopfield about ensuring a sufficiently large number of equilibria which need to be asymptotically stable in some sense. Viewing AI devices as repetitive structures, we focus on those devices ensuring some stability properties of the equilibria from the design stage, pointing out that the so-called hyperstable blocks (in particular, the triplet connection) are suitable for this purpose. At the same time the possible number and localization of equilibria as well as their stability are discussed.
