NEURAL NETWORKS IN ANALOG HARDWARE — DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION ISSUES
Abstract
This paper presents a brief review of some analog hardware implementations of neural networks. Several criteria for the classification of general neural networks implementations are discussed and a taxonomy induced by these criteria is presented. The paper also discusses some characteristics of analog implementations as well as some trade-offs and issues identified in the work reviewed. Parameters such as precision, chip area, power consumption, speed and noise susceptibility are discussed in the context of neural implementations. A unified review of various "VLSI friendly" algorithms is also presented. The paper concludes with some conclusions drawn from the analysis of the implementations presented.
