HyperRec: Efficient Recommender Systems with Hyperdimensional Computing


A group of researchers are taking a different approach to AI. The University of California at San Diego, the University of California at Irvine, San Diego State University and DGIST recently presented a paper on a new hardware algorithm based on hyperdimensional (HD) computing, which is a brain-inspired computing model. The new algorithm, called HyperRec, uses data that is modeled with bina... » read more

Manufacturing Bits: May 10


Synaptic transistors The University of Hong Kong and Northwestern University have developed an organic electrochemical synaptic transistor, a technology that could one day process and store information like the human brain. Researchers have demonstrated that the transistor can mimic the synapses in the human brain. It can build on memories to learn over time, according to researchers. Th... » read more
