Abstract

See full text

A neuron for use in a self-learning neural network comprises a current input node at which a plurality of synaptic input currents are summed using Kirchoff's current law. The summed input currents are normalized using a coarse gain current normalizer. The normalized summed inputs current is then converted to a voltage using a current to voltage converter. This voltage is then amplified by a gain controlled cascode output amplifier. Gain control inputs are provided in the output amplifier so that the neuron can be settled by the Mean Field Approximation. A noise input stage is also connected to the output amplifier so that the neuron can be settled using simulated annealing. The resulting neuron is a variable gain, bi-directional current transimpedance neuron with a controllable noise input.
