Convolutional Neural Networks Utilizing Multifunctional Spin-Hall MTJ Neurons

no code implementations • 9 May 2019 • Andrew W. Stephan, Steven J. Koester

We propose a new network architecture for standard spin-Hall magnetic tunnel junction-based spintronic neurons that allows them to compute multiple critical convolutional neural network functionalities simultaneously and in parallel, saving space and time.
