Summary: A 2-D dynamical model is proposed to explain the memristive properties in a bilayer structure and investigate the influence of a dense layer of Pt nanoparticles on thermal distribution. By simulating probabilistic leaky-integrate-and-fire neuron properties, Bayesian extrapolation is achieved in a spiking neural network. The classification application using a liver tumor dataset highlights the advantages of stochastic-based spike neural networks in terms of accuracy and power consumption compared to conventional artificial neural networks and deterministic-based spike neural networks.

Plasticity and learning behavior emulated in a ZnO based transparent artificial synapse

P. S. Subin et al.

Summary: Artificial synaptic devices are crucial in building artificial neural networks for neuromorphic computing. A transparent synaptic device with potentiation, depression, and forgetting behavior similar to biological synapses is reported in this study. The device exhibits paired-pulse facilitation, spike parameters dependent synaptic weight, and transition from short-term memory to long-term memory. Changes in synaptic weight are influenced by the amplitude, pulse width, and interval of input pulses. The mechanism behind potentiation and depression is proposed to be oxygen vacancy migration forming conducting filaments. The device demonstrates short-term plasticity and long-term potentiation depending on input conditions, reflecting inherent properties of neuroplasticity. Forgetting behavior is attributed to the spontaneous decay of conductance due to the rupturing of oxygen vacancy filaments caused by recombination with non-lattice oxygen ions in the electrodes.
