STDP implementation using memristive nanodevice in CMOS-Nano neuromorphic networks
Abstract Implementation of a correlation-based learning rule, Spike-Timing-Dependent-Plasticity (STDP), for asynchronous neuromorphic networks is demonstrated using `memristive' nanodevice. STDP is performed using locally available ...

Photorefractive Adaptive Resonance Neural Network
Abstract We describe a novel adaptive resonance theory (ART) device that is fully optical in the input-output processing path. This device is based on holographic information processing in a photorefractive crystal. This sets up an ...

CIRCUIT SIMULATION OF ADAPTIVE RESONANCE THEORY (ART) NEURAL NETWORK USING PSPICE
Abstract This paper outlines the design and simulation of an analogue integrated circuit for the adaptive resonanace theory (ART1) neural network. The circuit is designed based on a set of coupled differential equations which ...

ANALOG CIRCUIT-DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ADAPTIVE RESONANCE THEORY (ART) NEURAL-NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
Abstract An analogue circuit implementation is presented for an adaptive resonance theory neural network architecture, called the augmented ART-1 neural network (AARTI-NN). The AARTI-NN is a modification of the popular ARTI-NN, ...

Abstract This paper presents a modification to the original ART 1 algorithm (Carpenter & Grossberg, 1987a, A massively parallel architecture for a self-organizing neural pattern recognition machine, Computer Vision, Graphics, and ...

Incremental communication for adaptive resonance theory networks
Abstract We have proposed earlier the incremental internode communication method to reduce the communication cost as well as the time of the learning process in artificial neural netwofrks (ANNs). In this paper, the limited precision ...
