Abstract

随着大数据和物联网的快速发展, 基于传统冯·诺依曼架构的计 算机存在吞吐量有限和能源利用效率低下的问题. 基于忆阻器的人工 神经网络计算系统被认为是克服这一瓶颈的候选之一. 本研究成功研 制了基于碳化硅纳米线薄膜的光电忆阻器, 不仅可以很好地实现生物 视觉突触的基本功能, 还可以实现更为复杂的树突神经元和巴甫洛夫 学习等类脑学习特性. 在视觉功能的基础上, 实现了集成在SiC忆阻器 中的感知、存储和计算的功能. 更重要的是, 得益于SiC纳米线视觉突 触优异的计算能力构建的脉冲神经网络能够实现早期肺癌病灶的识 别. 该方法迭代次数少, 检测准确率可达90%以上, 在医疗领域具有良好 的应用前景. 本研究为神经形态计算技术中基于SiC的感知-存储-计算 一体化人工智能设备的开发和推广提供了一条有前景的途径.
