Hopfield, who left Princeton for Caltech in 1980, developed the "Hopfield network," an artificial neural network that can find and store patterns in information in a way that mimics the brain.

Geoff Hinton and John Hopfield are jointly sharing the prestigious award for their work on artificial neural networks starting back in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

In 1982, physicist John Hopfield translated this theoretical neuroscience concept into the artificial intelligence realm, with the formulation of the Hopfield network. In doing so, not only did he ...

An American professor and a British Canadian professor won the Nobel Prize in Physics on Tuesday for their decadeslong, trailblazing research forming the building blocks of artificial intelligence ...

In stunning Nobel win, AI researchers Hopfield and Hinton take 2024 Physics Prize Hinton, who quit Google in 2023 to warn of AI dangers, was "flabbergasted" at the news.

Instead of applying the two-step algorithmic memory retrieval on the rather static energy landscape of the original Hopfield network model, the researchers describe a dynamic, input-driven mechanism.
