arXiv:2606.09112v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence has led to substantial advances in deep neural networks. Nonetheless, conventional GPU-based training remains highly energy-demanding, motivating the exploration of physical dynamics and compatible energy-based learning schemes, such as equilibrium propagation (EP). EP-based training, however, frequently suffers from convergence to local minima due to phase-space contraction. Here we introduce an Ising-dynamics-inspired equilibrium-propagation framework in which dissipative Hopfield relaxation is rep
