For shortage of space we only report the end results. The details are available
in [3]. Both
Phase III & IV
show that the zero basin has a definite bias for pat-
terns with lesser weight.
Phase III
establishes the relation on
MACA
with two
attractors, while
Phase IV
generalizes the result for multiple attractor
MACA
.
The bias gets reflected in the graphs reported in the
Fig 7-9
for
MACA
with
2
m
attractor basins. The graphs are based on the relation denoting the Expected
Occurrence (
EO
) of a pattern with particular weight (
r
) in the zero basin of an
MACA
over the normal unbiased expectation. The general relationship can be
noted as
