Reliable and Energy-efficient Diabetic Retinopathy Screening using Memristor-based Neural Networks

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of permanent vision loss worldwide. It refers to irreversible retinal damage caused due to elevated glucose levels and blood pressure. Regular screening for DR can facilitate its early detection and timely treatment. Neural network-based DR classifiers can be leveraged to achieve such screening in...

Using STLs for Effective In-field Test of GPUs

Editor's notes: GPUs have seen an increased adoption in autonomous systems. This article assesses the fault coverage that can be attained through software self-test strategies for in-field test of GPUs. - Nicola Nicolici, McMaster University

Evaluation of Single Event Upset Susceptibility of FinFET-based SRAMs with Weak Resistive Defects

Fin Field-Effect Transistor (FinFET) technology enables the continuous downscaling of Integrated Circuits (ICs), using the Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology in accordance with the More Moore domain. Despite demonstrating improvements on short channel effect and overcoming the growing leakage problem of planar CMOS...
