In our model a presynaptic noise causes postsynaptic depression as recently ob- served in neurobiological systems. This results in a nonequilibrium condi- tion in which the network sensitivity to an external stimulus is enhanced. In particular, the fixed points are qualitatively modified, and the system may easily scape from the attractors. As a result, in addition to pattern recognition, the model is useful for class identification and categorization.}, organization = {MCyT and FEDER (project No. BFM2001- 2841 and Ram´on y Cajal contract)}, publisher = {Springer}, keywords = {Inteligencia artificial}, keywords = {Artificial intelligence}, title = {Instability of attractors in auto–associative networks with bio–inspired fast synaptic noise}, author = {Torres Agudo, Joaquín and Cortes, J.
