Artificial neurons based on semiconductor technology
27 Jun 2023
The NEHO project is working on ultrafast neural networks, which could be used to develop more efficient methods of information processing in the future.
Artificial neural networks are a key technology in the domain of AI and machine learning. Many applications need the rapid parallel processing of vast amounts of data – with correspondingly high energy demand. The new EU project NEHO (Neuromorphic computing Enabled by Heavily doped semiconductor Optics), in which LMU physicist Dr. Andreas Tittl plays an important role, is seeking to develop an energy-saving alternative through a specially tailored combination of materials science and photonics.
