چکیده

Evolvable Hardware (EHW) has been proposed as a new method for designing systems for real-world applications. In this paper it is applied for evolving a prosthetic hand controller. It is shown that better generalization performance than neural networks can be obtained. The proposed architecture is based on digital logic gates and its configuration is determined by two separate steps of evolution.

Incremental evolution of a signal classification hardware architecture for prosthetic hand control

Evolvable Hardware (EHW) is a new method for designing electronic circuits. However, there are several problems to solve for making high performance systems. One is the limited scalability of the ordinary approach. To reduce this problem, a novel digital signal classification architecture has been developed that allows for incremental evolution. This is based on initially evolving subcircuits f...

A Minimal-Cost Inherent-Feedback Approach for Low-Power MRF-Based Logic Gates

The Markov random field (MRF) theory has been accepted as a highly effective framework for designing noise-tolerant nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In MRF-based design, proper feedback lines are used to control noise and keep the circuits in their valid states. However, this methodology has encountered two major problems that have limited the application of highly noise immune MRF-based circui...

Efficient Delay Characterization Method to Obtain the Output Waveform of Logic Gates Considering Glitches

Accurate delay calculation of circuit gates is very important in timing analysis of digital circuits. Waveform shapes on the input ports of logic gates should be considered, in the characterization phase of delay calculation, to obtain accurate gate delay values. Glitches and their temporal effect on circuit gate delays should be taken into account for this purpose. However, the explosive numbe...
