Research Bits: Feb. 27


Phonon-magnon reservoir Researchers from TU Dortmund, Loughborough University, V. E. Lashkaryov Institute of Semiconductor Physics, and University of Nottingham were inspired by the human eye to propose an on-chip phonon-magnon reservoir for neuromorphic computing. In reservoir computing, input signals are mapped into a multidimensional space, which is not trained and only expedites recogni... » read more
