NIST Training, Optimization and Benchmarking of Hardware Neural Networks

Machine learning algorithms, such as deep learning, have revolutionized our ability to solve pattern recognition and other traditionally "human" problems. However, such algorithms still do not capture all of the attributes of intelligence and are very power and resource hungry when implemented on traditional computers. These issues have compelled engineers to develop new hardware for AI based on a diverse set of emerging devices, which can include photonic, memristive, magnetic and superconducting materials. Many of these systems...
