Implementation of Convolutional Neural Networks in Memristor Crossbar Arrays with Binary Activation and Weight Quantization

Jinwoo Park,
Sungjoon Kim,
Min Suk Song
et al.

Abstract: We propose a hardware-friendly architecture of a convolutional neural network using a 32 × 32 memristor crossbar array having an overshoot suppression layer. The gradual switching characteristics in both set and reset operations enable the implementation of a 3-bit multilevel operation in a whole array that can be utilized as 16 kernels. Moreover, a binary activation function mapped to the read voltage and ground is introduced to evaluate the result of training with a boundary of 0.5 and its estimated gradient… Show more

“…Previous researchers have developed a series of memristor devices imbued with logic functions that trigger diverse logic operations by configuring distinct thresholds to induce varied states in the logic devices. Although new logic devices manifest different logic functions contingent upon temperature, humidity, and lighting conditions, they typically necessitate multiple devices as input units to execute logic truth tables predicated on alterations in conductivity. …”

“…Recently, artificial neural networks (ANNs), inspired by the brain, have been actively researched and developed [ 1 ]. Particular attention has been paid to spiking neural net-works (SNNs) that utilize biological spike timing–dependent plasticity (STDP) rules to function as event-driven systems for unsupervised learning [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Since such SNNs pursue a more bio-plausible direction than other ANNs do, it is necessary to explore the signal transmission mechanisms of biological neurons and synapses to gain a deeper understanding of these SNNs.…”

“…Memristor has been extensively studied as a potential candidate for next-generation storage-class memory devices and artificial synaptic devices. Typically, the memristor has a metal–insulator–metal structure for resistive switching behaviors and requires an initial electroforming process. Once formed, the device can operate, with the resistance state switching between the low-resistance state (LRS) and high-resistance state (HRS) through set and reset operations, respectively.…”
