Bayesian neural networks using magnetic tunnel junction-based probabilistic in-memory computing

Abstract: Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) combine the generalizability of deep neural networks (DNNs) with a rigorous quantification of predictive uncertainty, which mitigates overfitting and makes them valuable for high-reliability or safety-critical applications. However, the probabilistic nature of BNNs makes them more computationally intensive on digital hardware and so far, less directly amenable to acceleration by analog in-memory computing as compared to DNNs. This work exploits a novel spintronic bit cell that e… Show more

“…For electronic crossbar arrays, memristors serve as the main in-memory computation element due their tunable conductance. Simultaneously, programming and reading the conductance of a memristor is a stochastic process due to inherent randomness of the switching process in addition to drifts and instabilities 20,21 . Since the randomness is programmable by deploying multiple memristors for a single matrix weight, it can be deployed for Bayesian inference.…”

“…The requirements for ANN and SNN devices depend on their intended use, e.g., CMOS-compatible devices for state-of-the-art electronics and biocompatible devices for use in health. Many devices have been proposed for building these systems; however, only a subset meets the performance requirements, few are biocompatible, and fewer leverage advanced biological behavior such as that of dendrites. In biological systems, dendrites branch out from the neuronal body and process incoming spikes into nonspiking spatiotemporal signals. For example, the leaky integrate-and-fire model of neuronal behavior is composed of one leaky recurrent dendrite and a soma for an activation threshold.…”
