We discuss the thermodynamic phases and storage capacity of models which are extensions of the Hopfield-Little model of associative memory, generalized to allow for arbitrary polynomial Hamiltonians. The storage capacity increases as an exponential function of the highest power appearing in the polynomial Hamiltonian. We include the effects of replica symmetry breaking in our computations.
