The theory of the network is similar to that of
the Hopfield network. It can
be shown that each cycle reduces the value of
the energy function, so that
the network tends to a local minimum of the energy
function. The determination
of the weights ensures that the exemplar patterns
are located at these minima,
provided the number of patterns is small compared
to NA and NB.
