“…The recall failure of the min AMM for inputs degraded by dilative noise and similarly, the poor performance of the max AMM for inputs corrupted with erosive noise, and consequently their inapplicability to deal with mixed random noise has been exposed repeatedly since their introduction [3,7] and revisited across the most recent theoretical results discovered about them [6,11]. By capitalizing the robustness to either erosive or dilative noise, respectively, of the min-and max-LAAMs, a practical solution to pattern recall from inputs corrupted by mixed random noise using only one of the canonical LAAMs was initiated by masking the noise contained in the corrupted input pattern [12][13][14]. Based on selective pattern indexing, further improvement of the noise masking strategy and its extension to fuzzy type associative morphological memories have been recently reported in [15,16] and [17].…”
