Abstract: It is significant to design a system with high storage capacity for associative memory and pattern recognition. To address this issue, this paper first proposes a quaternion-valued neural network (QVNN) model with multiple equilibrium points in which the cosine function is used as the activation function of QVNN. Then, based on the Brouwer fixed point theorem and the geometric properties of the activation function, sufficient conditions for QVNN to have unique equilibrium points, finite equilibrium points, and countable infinite equilibrium points are obtained, respectively. Furthermore, sufficient conditions for the exponential stability of equilibrium points are derived, and the attraction basins of the stable equilibrium points are given. Finally, two numerical examples are given to confirm the validity of the proposed theoretical results.
