Geometric and dynamical analysis of attractor boundaries and storage limits in kernel Hopfield networks

arXiv:2605.00366v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: High-capacity associative memories based on Kernel Logistic Regression (KLR) exhibit strong storage capabilities, but the dynamical and geometric mechanisms underlying their stability remain poorly understood. This paper investigates the global geometry of attractor basins and the mechanisms governing the storage limit in KLR-trained Hopfield networks. We combine empirical evaluations using random sequences and real-world image embeddings (CIFAR-10) with morphing experiments and statistical Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) analysis. Our expe
