The Modern Hopfield Network (MHN) model, recently introduced as an extension of Hopfield networks, allows for the memory capacity to scale non-linearly with the size of the network. In previous works, MHN have been used to store inputs in its connections and reconstruct them on partial inputs. In this work, we examine if MHN can be used for classical classification task that require generalization to unseen data from same class. We developed a Modern Hopfield Network based classifier with the number of hidden neurons equal to number of classes in the input data and local learning that is able to perform at the accuracy as MLP on several vision tasks (classification on MNIST, Fashion-MNIST and CIFAR-10). Our approach allows us to perform classification, pattern completion, noise robustness and examining the representation of individual classes within the same network. We identify that temperature determines both accuracy and noise robustness. Overall, in this preliminary report, we propose a simple framework for class generalization using MHN and demonstrates the feasibility of using MHN for machine learning tasks that require generalization.
