Abstract Dynamical properties of a general neural network are discussed. A condition for the neural activation dynamics being stable is derived. The stability condition does not put any symmetry restriction on the weights. The transitions from stable to non-stable dynamics are analysed and their analogy to phase transitions in statistical mechanics discussed. In general, the network dynamics can violate the stability condition. To avoid that happening, a method is introduced which makes the dynamics adaptive such that the stability condition is sustained. Relations to some previous works on stability are discussed.
