Question: we currently emulate neural networks by performing matrix math in synchronous clock CPU architectures. Would it not be better to abandon synchronization and etch neuron synapses directly in silicon, keeping only the weights variable? I think some researchers are pursuing this, but I forget what the approach is called.
- freakynit 2mo ago"Neuromorphic chips" .... and I have the exact same question in mind.
- Perz1val 2mo agoThat'd be either analog computing or you're implementing floating point number math in each neuron. Maybe some kind of PWM calculations would be doable, do we have it researched or would be a new kind of math?
- Ey7NFZ3P0nzAe 2mo agoI don't understand what you'd etch instead of the weight? What's a neuron synapse to you that's not a weight?
