Claim One:
1. A method for modifying at least one synapse of an electromechanical neural network, said method comprising: providing an electromechanical neural network comprising at least one neuron and at least one synapse thereof, wherein said at least one synapse is formed from a plurality of nanoparticles disposed within a dielectric solution in association with at least one pre-synaptic electrode and at least one post-synaptic electrode thereof and an electric field applied thereof; and transmitting at least one pulse generated from said at least one neuron to at least one post-synaptic electrode of a said neuron and said at least one pre-synaptic electrode of said at least one neuron of said electromechanical neural network, thereby strengthening at least one nanoconnection of said plurality of nanoparticles disposed within said dielectric solution and said at least one synapse thereof.
