some of the properties that the above ECAN equations display when we use an ECAN defined by them as an associative memory network in the manner of a Hopfield network. We consider a situation where the ECAN is supplied with memories via a "training" phase in which one imprints it with a series of binary

orks Economic Attention Networks (ECANs) are dynamical systems based on the propagation of STI and LTI values. They are similar in many respects to Hopfield nets, but are based on a different conceptual foundation involving the propagation of amounts of (conserved) currency rather than neural-net activa

ribed in Chapter 23. While the basic structure of CogPrime's action selection aspect is fairly similar to MicroPsi (due to the common foundation in Dorner's Psi model), the dynamics are less similar. MicroPsi's dynamics are a little closer to being a formal neural net model, whereas ECAN's economic fo
