Bio-inspired Learning and Decision-Making with Probabilistic In-Memory Computing Hardware: Part 1
Learning and decision-making in animals are often modeled as Bayesian processes, where sensory evidence is integrated with prior beliefs to guide behavior in the face of uncertainty. But what are the inherent neural dynamics that give rise to this ability, and how could they be replicated in computing systems? This abstract discusses a biologically grounded framework in which noisy neural and synaptic dynamics perform inference and learning via stochastic sampling from an internal energy function, capturing uncertainty over latent states and model parameters through neural and synaptic variability, respectively. This enables approaches such as predictive coding networks to account for epi...
