Abstract:
1. A synaptic electrical circuit for connection between a pre-synaptic neuron circuit and a post-synaptic neuron circuit, comprising: a plurality of memristors to adjust a strength of the connection, wherein a spike of the pre-synaptic neuron circuit followed by a spike of the post-synaptic neuron circuit triggers decreasing of resistance of a first of the memristors causing the strength of connection to increase, a second of the memristors being connected to the first memristor during the strength increase and a resistance of the second memristor was changed prior to the strength increase due to the spikes, and another spike of the post-synaptic neuron circuit followed by another spike of the pre-synaptic neuron circuit triggers increasing of resistance of the first memristor causing the strength of connection to decrease, a third of the memristors being connected to the first memristor during the strength decrease and a resistance of the third memristor was changed prior to the strength decrease due to the other spikes.
