Probabilistic Neural Computing with Stochastic Devices (Adv. Mater. 37/2023)

Abstract

Unlike modern computers that are engineered to be fully deterministic, the brain leverages stochasticity at immense scales to achieve energy-efficient intelligence.In article number 2204569, Shashank Misra, James B. Aimone, and co-workers describe how the incorporation of materials and devices that exhibit stochastic behaviors into brain-inspired circuits can enable neuromorphic systems that natively perform probabilistic computations.
