Abstract for Presentation

Metal Oxide-based Neuron for Neuromorphic Computation and Perception

The in-depth understanding of information processing in the central nervous system, it’s of great implications for new insight into the limitations and challenges of nowadays’ semiconducting technologies. Our human receives external information by the sensory neural system and processes them by the central nervous system, resulting in the interaction with real-world by the motor neural system. Therefore, the design of biologically plausible information processing devices, such as bioinspired in-memory computing and in-sensor computing devices, are of great interesting for endowing electronics with sensory-motor abilities. This talk will focus on the metal oxide based neuromorphic devices for neuromorphic computation and perception. The scientific and technological issues concerning on the construction of neuromorphic sensorimotor system will be discussed. The aim of this topic is to develop a hardware system with human-like perceptual, computing, and control capabilities, which would propel the development for artificial intelligent systems, humanoid robotics, future manufacturing, and so on.
