  • Abstract
    We analyze the effects of synaptic depression on the stability of patterns stored in neural networks with low activity level. Applying mean-field theory we show that the stationary states remain unaffected by the synaptic depression. However the stability of memory patterns changes drastically causing a reduction of memory capacity. Further, it is demonstrated and confirmed by numerical calculations that the sensitivity of the network to input changes is enhanced
