Non-volatile memory as hardware synapse in neuromorphic computing: A first look at reliability issues

Irem Boybat Kara, Carmelo Di Nolfo

A large-scale artificial neural network, a three-layer perceptron, is implemented using two phase-change memory (PCM) devices to encode the weight of each of 164,885 synapses. The PCM conductances are programmed using a crossbar-compatible pulse scheme, an ...

Online Policy Adaptation for Ensemble Classifiers

Samy Bengio, Christos Dimitrakakis

Ensemble algorithms can improve the performance of a given learning algorithm through the combination of multiple base classifiers into an ensemble. In this paper we attempt to train and combine the base classifiers using an adaptive policy. This policy is ...
