  • Modulation device and method, artificial synapse comprising said modulation device, short term plasticity method in an artificial neural network comprising said artificial synapse
    Patent number: 11551073
    Abstract: A modulation device includes at least one memristive device, and a control block, the modulation device having an equivalent conductance yi(t) produced by the at least one memristive device and the control block being configured to receive a clock signal and perform a first modification of the equivalent conductance yi(t) upon receipt of each clock signal, receive an input voltage pulse and perform a second modification of the equivalent conductance yi(t) upon receipt of each input voltage pulse, the first and second modifications being in opposite directions.
    Type: Grant
