Abstract
Hopfield neural network model for finding an optimal or shortest path between two nodes in a graph was proposed recently in some literatures. In this paper, we present a modified version of Hopfield model to find an optimal tree (least total cost tree) from a source node to a number of destination nodes, where each path from source to a destination must satisfy a constraint condition (delay bound condition). This problem is called Constrained Steiner Tree (CST) problem, and was proved to he a NP-complete. A new adaptive coefficient control method for the proposed Hopfield energy function is also developed. Through computer simulation, it is shown that the proposed model could always find a near-optimal valid solution.
