Descrizione

In the context of computing devices, and more in details in the sector of neural networks, the ‘reservoir computing’ paradigm is well known: it is based on the separation between a dynamic part (reservoir) and a non-recurrent part (readout) which needs to be trained. The main problem of reservoir computing systems is the difficulty in adapting to different computationl tasks and the necessity to train several parameters.

The invention provides a device for the implementation of a reservoir for a neural network which is constituted by a network of nanowires arranged on a substrate and a plaurality of electrodes. This device allows to minimize the number of parameters to train in the artificial neural network.
