Automated associative memory RAM device for the non-volatile storage, detection and retrieval of message/label associations and vice versa, with maximum likelihood. The associative memory (10) consists of a sequencer (μP) connected to a non-volatile RAM memory unit (5) segmented into two contiguous memory pages (1) and (2), each segmented into two contiguous memory banks (1_a), (1_b), respectively, and n sets (2c_i), (2d_i). The sequencer (μP), integrating a program (6), stores, detects, and retrieves an association of a message (MEin_i) with a label (Lout_i) and a label (Lin_j) for a message (MEout_j), respectively. The message (ME) consists of n sub-messages (RS_x) of w bits coupled to the label (L) of v bits by the value of a counter (3) positioned at a low zero address. The device according to the invention is used in the field of neurosciences as an integrated electronic neuromorphic memory module.
