Abstract
Associative memory networks have been extensively studied to imitate the biological associative learning. The control circuits of most associative memory circuits are more complicated. Using the memristor with forgetting effect as a synapse can significantly reduce the complexity of the circuit. In this paper, an associative memory circuit based on a forgetting memristor is proposed to implement full-function Pavlov associative memory. The learning process and forgetting process in the Pavlov experiment, including forgetting under ringing stimuli, forgetting under food stimuli, and forgetting over time, can be achieved by the proposed circuit. The PSPICE simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed circuit.
