Energy function analysis of dynamic programming neural networks.
All analytical examination of the energy function associated with a dynamic programming neural network is presented. The analysis is carried out in two steps. First, the locations and numbers of the minimum states for different components of the energy function are investigated in the extreme cases. A clearer insight into the energy function can be gained through the minimum states of different components. Secondly, the locations of the minimum states of the energy function using different parameter values are derived. It is shown that the minimum states can reside in regions which are regarded as valid solutions with certain conditions. Examples and simulation results are given to justify the validity of the theories developed.
