Pattern Denoising in Molecular Associative Memory using Pairwise Markov Random Field Models

Abstract

We propose an in silico molecular associative memory model for pattern learning, storage and denoising using Pairwise Markov Random Field (PMRF) model. Our PMRF-based molecular associative memory model extracts locally distributed features from the exposed examples, learns and stores the patterns in the molecular associative memory and denoises the given noisy patterns via DNA computation based operations. Thus, our computational molecular model demonstrates the functionalities of content-addressability of human memory. Our molecular simulation results show that the averaged mean squared error between the learned and denoised patterns are low (< 0.014) up to 30% of noise.
