Abstract:
Resistive Random Access Memory (ReRAM) is an emerging memory featuring high speed, low power and large capacity. The crossbar-structured ReRAM can not only store the weights of the neural network but also greatly speed up the matrix-vector multiplications. However, the reliability issues of ReRAM lead to significant accuracy degradation of neural networks. In this talk, I will present several techniques to mitigate the reliability issues (including stuck-at faults, conductance variation and drift) in ReRAM-based Neural Network Accelerators.
