After a brief review of the characteristics of electrical stress degradation of flexible, amorphous silicon thin film transistors, the implications for various types of flexible circuitry including active matrix backplanes, integrated drivers and general purpose digital circuitry are examined. A circuit modeling tool that enables the prediction of complex circuit degradation is presented. Exper...

The ionic conductance models of neuronal cells can finely reproduce a wide variety of complex neuronal activities. However, the complexity of these models has prompted the development of qualitative neuron models. They are described by differential equations with a reduced number of variables and their low-dimensional polynomials, which retain the core mathematical structures. Such simple model...

Hierarchical convolutional neural networks are a well-known robust image-recognition model. In order to apply this model to robot vision or various intelligent vision systems, its VLSI implementation with high performance and low power consumption is required. This paper proposes a VLSI convolutional network architecture using a hybrid approach composed of pulse-width modulation (PWM) and digit...

Nucleic acids have been demonstrated to be versatile nanoscale engineering materials with the construction of dynamic DNA structures, motors, and circuits. These constructions generally rely on the clever use and integration of relatively few reaction mechanisms and design primitives. Here, cooperative hybridization is introduced as a mechanism in which two oligonucleotides of independent seque...
