Abstract
A cognitive learning device includes inputs with each including an input path having a transistor device having a storage capacity. A circuit is responsive to the inputs and selects an input set in accordance with a current task, wherein the input set selected modifies a characteristic of the transistor device of one or more corresponding input paths to bias the input set for selection for subsequent accesses.
Claims20
A cognitive learning device, comprising:
- a plurality of inputs, each input including an input path having at least one transistor device having a storage capacity;
- and
- a circuit responsive to the plurality of inputs and selecting an input set in accordance with a current task;
- wherein the input set selected modifies a characteristic of the at least one transistor device of one or more corresponding input paths to bias the input set for selection for subsequent accesses.
