Neuromorphic Computing

[ˌnʊroʊˈmɔrfɪk kəmˈpjutɪŋ]
AI Infrastructure
Last updated: December 9, 2024

Definition

Computing architecture that mimics the biological neural networks of the human brain.

Detailed Explanation

Neuromorphic systems use electronic circuits designed to replicate the way biological neurons process information. These systems typically use spiking neural networks, analog or mixed-signal circuits, and novel memory architectures like memristors. They aim to achieve the energy efficiency and adaptability of biological brains while performing cognitive tasks. Current implementations focus on event-driven processing, parallel computation, and local learning rules.

Use Cases

Real-time sensory processing, autonomous systems, brain-computer interfaces, low-power AI applications, robotics
