Bayesian Gates for Reliable Logical Operations under Noisy Condition
The reliability of logical operations is indispensable for the reliable
operation of computational systems. Since the down-sizing of micro-fabrication
generates non-negligible noise in these systems, a new approach for designing
noise-immune gates is required. In this paper, we demonstrate that noise-immune
gates can be designed by combining Bayesian inference theory with the idea of
computation over a noisy signal. To reveal their practical advantages, the
performance of these gates is evaluated in comparison with a stochastic
resonance-based gate proposed previously. This approach for computation is also
demonstrated to be better than a conventional one that conducts information
transmission and computation separately.Comment: 3figures + 3 supplementary figure
