Emerging memory technologies for neuromorphic computing

In this paper, we reviewed the recent trends on neuromorphic computing using emerging memory technologies. Two representative learning algorithms used to implement a hardware-based neural network are described as a bio-inspired learning algorithm and software-based learning algorithm, in particular back-propagation. The requirements of the synaptic device to apply each algorithm were analyzed. Then, we reviewed the research trends of synaptic devices to implement an artificial neural network.
