1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Binary memristor crossbars have great potential for use in brain-inspired neuromorphic computing. The complementary crossbar array has been proposed to perform the Exclusive-NOR function for neuromorphic pattern recognition. The single crossbar obtained by shortening the Exclusive-NOR function has more advantages in terms of power consumption, area occupancy, and fault tolerance. In this paper, we present the impact of data density on the single memristor crossbar architecture for neuromorphic image recognition. The impact of data density on the single memristor architecture is mathematically derived from the reduced formula of the Exclusive-NOR function, and then verified via circuit simulation. The complementary and single crossbar architectures are tested by using ten 32 × 32 images with different data densities of 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75. The simulation results showed that the data density of images has a negative effect on the single memristor crossbar architecture while not affecting the complementary memristor crossbar architecture. The maximum output column current produced by the single memristor crossbar array decreases as data density decreases while the complementary memristor crossbar array architecture provides stable maximum output column currents. When recognizing images with data density as low as 0.25, the maximum output column currents of the single memristor crossbar architecture is reduced four-fold compared with the maximum currents from the complementary memristor crossbar architecture. This reduction causes the Winner-take-all circuit to work incorrectly and will reduce the recognition rate of the single memristor crossbar architecture. These simulation results show that the single memristor crossbar architecture has more advantages compared with the complementary crossbar architecture when the images do have not many different densities, and none of the images have very low densities. This work also indicates that the single crossbar architecture must be improved by adding a constant term to deal with images that have low data densities. These are valuable case studies for archiving the advantages of single memristor crossbar architecture in neuromorphic computing applications.
