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
Binary Weighted Memristive Analog Deep Neural Network for Near-Sensor Edge Processing
The memristive crossbar aims to implement analog weighted neural network,
however, the realistic implementation of such crossbar arrays is not possible
due to limited switching states of memristive devices. In this work, we propose
the design of an analog deep neural network with binary weight update through
backpropagation algorithm using binary state memristive devices. We show that
such networks can be successfully used for image processing task and has the
advantage of lower power consumption and small on-chip area in comparison with
digital counterparts. The proposed network was benchmarked for MNIST
handwritten digits recognition achieving an accuracy of approximately 90%
