Abstract :
In this paper, we present a new digital architecture of the neuron hardware that can be implemented using a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The proposed neuron applies a new inverse function delayed neuron model. In order to decrease the circuit area, we employ the stochastic logic. Because of the property of pseudoanalog operations of stochastic logic, the scale of a circuit is smaller than a conventional digital circuit. However, the stochastic logic requires the certain accumulation time for the more precise mean. Fortunately, the ID model of high-speed convergence remedies this shortcoming. The simulation experimental results show that the inverse function variance is related to the accumulation time, and this digital system can perform the associative memory.
