METHOD AND APPARATUS OF PROBABILISTIC PROGRAMMING MULTI-LEVEL MEMORY IN CLUSTER STATES OF BI-STABLE ELEMENTS
摘要
<p>A probabilistic programming current is injected into a cluster of bi-stable probabilistic switching elements, the probabilistic programming current having parameters set to result in a less than unity probability of any given bi-stable switching element switching, and a resistance of the cluster of bi-stable switching elements is detected. The probabilistic programming current is injected and the resistance of the cluster state detected until a termination condition is met. Optionally the termination condition is detecting the resistance of the cluster of bi-stable switching elements at a value representing a multi-bit data.</p>
