商品描述
This book discusses in detail low-voltage low-power designs for minimizing the hardware resources required by neural network implementations. The novel method presented in this book for an accurate realization of activation functions for artificial neural networks (ANNs), is based on specific superior-order approximation functions. The author describes analog implementations in CMOS technology to increase the speed of operation, while reducing the hardware resources required for obtaining these approximation functions. Original architectures presented in this book, used for implementing previous CMOS computational structures, allow for operation independent of technological errors and temperature variations. SPICE simulations confirm the theoretically estimated results for previously presented CMOS computational structures, developed for ANNs and artificial intelligence applications.

本書詳細討論了低電壓低功耗設計，以最小化神經網絡實現所需的硬體資源。本書提出的一種新穎方法，用於準確實現人工神經網絡（ANNs）的激活函數，基於特定的高階近似函數。作者描述了在CMOS技術中的類比實現，以提高操作速度，同時減少獲得這些近似函數所需的硬體資源。本書中提出的原始架構，用於實現先前的CMOS計算結構，允許操作不受技術誤差和溫度變化的影響。SPICE模擬確認了先前提出的CMOS計算結構的理論估計結果，這些結構是為ANNs和人工智慧應用開發的。
