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...

RRAM Variability and its Mitigation Schemes

Emerging technologies such as RRAMs are attracting significant attention, due to their tempting characteristics such as high scalability, CMOS compatibility and non-volatility to replace the current conventional memories. However, critical causes of hardware reliability failures (such as process variation due to their nano-scale structure) have...
