Unipolar Binary Bidirectional Associative Memory

T. C. B. Yu and R. J. Mears describe a design of unipolar binary bidirectional associative memory, and its

implementation with a Smart Advanced Spatial Light Modulator (SASLM). The SASLM device is a

ferroelectric liquid crystal spatial light modulator. It is driven by a silicon CMOS backplane. We use their

paper to present some features of a unipolar binary bidirectional associative memory, and ignore the hardware

implementation of it.

Recall the procedure by which you determine the weight matrix W for a BAM network, as described in the

previous pages. As a first step, you convert each vector in the exemplar pairs into its bipolar version. If X and
