Abstract:
ABSTRACT: We propose a revolutionary method for constructing autonomous self-organizing circuits via memristive and CMOS technologies for use in autonomous flying vehicles. Our method utilizes a simple but powerful plasticity rule that can be mapped to the physics of memristive devices acting as… More

Abstract:
We propose a self-organized chaotic attractor based CMOS/Memristor circuit framework called Self-Evolvable-Logic-Fabric (SELF) for autonomous motor control. We propose to demonstrate SELF's ability to spontaneously evolve algorithmic pathways to control a robotic arm to catch a ball utilizing… More
Emerging Software Algorithms for Autonomous Sense Making Operations
Award Year / Program / Phase:
2012 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency:
DOD
Principal Investigator:
Alex Nugent, President – (505) 988-7016
Award Amount:
$148,917.00
Abstract:
ABSTRACT: We propose an elegant network-building algorithm for sense-making applications capable of learning the spatial-temporal structure of applied input data. Through a combination of synaptic and structural plasticity our networks will dissect vast quantities of streaming information down to… More
