摘要:
A hardware implementation of a temporal memory system (10) comprises - at least one array (360, 361, 362) of memory cells (40) logically organized in rows and columns, each memory cell being adapted for storing a scalar value and adapted for changing, e.g. for incrementing or decrementing, the stored scalar value, - an input system (340) adapted for receiving an input frame as input and for creating a representation for that input, which is fit for memory cell addressing in the at least one array, - at least one addressing unit for identifying a memory cell in the at least one array with a row address and a column address, the at least one addressing unit comprising - a column addressing unit (41) for receiving the representation or a derivative thereof as input and applying the representation or the derivative as a column address to the array of cells, and - a row addressing unit (42) for receiving a delayed version of the representation at a specified time in the past as input, and applying this representation as a row address to the array of cells,
- a reading unit (43) adapted for reading out scalar values from a selected row of memory cells in the array, based on the row address applied, each read out scalar value corresponding to a likelihood of temporal coincidence between the input representation of the row address and the input representation of the column address, this likelihood being adjustable through the scalar value stored in the memory cell.

Embodiments of the invention provide electronic synapse devices for reinforcement learning. An electronic synapse is configured for interconnecting a pre-synaptic electronic neuron and a post-synaptic electronic neuron. The electronic synapse comprises memory elements configured for storing a state of the electronic synapse and storing meta information for updating the state of the electronic synapse. The electronic synapse further comprises an update module configured for updating the state of the electronic synapse based on the meta information in response to an update signal for reinforcement learning. The update module is configured for updating the state of the electronic synapse based on the meta information, in response to a delayed update signal for reinforcement learning based on a learning rule.

This invention has 3 parts. Part 1 proposes a Cellular Neural Network or CNN universal chip (100) architecture with analog stored programs (104, 112) and time-multiplex templates. Hundreds of dedicated CNN chips may be replaced with a single programmable, real-time VLSI chip (100). Each chip (100) includes a global analogic programming unit or GAPU (102). Each chip (100) also includes a grid of enhanced cells (110), with each such cell having local units for: memory (112, 114), logic (116), communications and control (118) and output (120) functions. Part 2 proposes a unique wireless non-optical method for outputting information from the CNN analog array via electromagnetic waves generated by non-linear oscillations and chaos. Part 3 combines a set of analog, or digitally emulated, CNN universal chips (100) to design a CNN array supercomputer capable of solving non-linear partial differential equations (e.g., wave type, Navier-Stokes-type, etc.).
