Abstract

A network of open, bistable reaction systems coupled by mass transfer is simulated. The mass transfer rates are determined by a Hebb-type rule, and the programmable network can store patterns of high and low concentrations in each bistable system. In a parallel computation, the network recognizes patterns similar, but not necessarily identical, to stored patterns.
