| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For finding near optimal solutions of NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems, a chaotic search method has been proposed. In the method, a chaotic neural network is constructed by chaotic neurons. We have already clarified that its high searching ability depends on a statistical property of refractory effects in the chaotic neuron. However it is difficult to find optimal parameters of the refractory effect. In order to develop a method that decides optimal parameters, we confirmed relation between the values of parameters and searching abilities of the chaotic search method or a dynamics of the chaotic neuron from some numerical experiments.
We analyzed relation the searching ability and Lyapunov exponent of a single chaotic neuron. A positive Lyapunov exponent indicates that a behavior of the chaotic neuron is chaos. From some numerical experiments, we confirmed that if the Lyapunov exponents are positive, good results are obtained for a motif extraction problem.
