Logic Negation with Spiking Neural P Systems
Nowadays, the success of neural networks as reasoning systems is doubtless.
Nonetheless, one of the drawbacks of such reasoning systems is that they work
as black-boxes and the acquired knowledge is not human readable. In this paper,
we present a new step in order to close the gap between connectionist and logic
based reasoning systems. We show that two of the most used inference rules for
obtaining negative information in rule based reasoning systems, the so-called
Closed World Assumption and Negation as Finite Failure can be characterized by
means of spiking neural P systems, a formal model of the third generation of
neural networks born in the framework of membrane computing.Comment: 25 pages, 1 figur
Neuro-memristive Circuits for Edge Computing: A review
The volume, veracity, variability, and velocity of data produced from the
ever-increasing network of sensors connected to Internet pose challenges for
power management, scalability, and sustainability of cloud computing
infrastructure. Increasing the data processing capability of edge computing
devices at lower power requirements can reduce several overheads for cloud
computing solutions. This paper provides the review of neuromorphic
CMOS-memristive architectures that can be integrated into edge computing
devices. We discuss why the neuromorphic architectures are useful for edge
devices and show the advantages, drawbacks and open problems in the field of
neuro-memristive circuits for edge computing
On the possible Computational Power of the Human Mind
The aim of this paper is to address the question: Can an artificial neural
network (ANN) model be used as a possible characterization of the power of the
human mind? We will discuss what might be the relationship between such a model
and its natural counterpart. A possible characterization of the different power
capabilities of the mind is suggested in terms of the information contained (in
its computational complexity) or achievable by it. Such characterization takes
advantage of recent results based on natural neural networks (NNN) and the
computational power of arbitrary artificial neural networks (ANN). The possible
acceptance of neural networks as the model of the human mind's operation makes
the aforementioned quite relevant.Comment: Complexity, Science and Society Conference, 2005, University of
