We show that many delay-based reservoir computers considered in the literature can be characterized by a universal master memory function (MMF). Once computed for two independent parameters, this function provides linear memory capacity for any delay-based single-variable reservoir with small inputs. Moreover, we propose an analytical description of the MMF that enables its efficient and fast computation. Our approach can be applied not only to reservoirs governed by known dynamical rules such as Mackey-Glass or Ikeda-like systems but also to reservoirs whose dynamical model is not available. We also present results comparing the performance of the reservoir computer and the memory capacity given by the MMF.

We demonstrate reservoir computing with a physical system using a single autonomous Boolean logic element with time-delay feedback. The system generates a chaotic transient with a window of consistency lasting between 30 and 300 ns, which we show is sufficient for reservoir computing. We then characterize the dependence of computational performance on system parameters to find the best operating point of the reservoir. When the best parameters are chosen, the reservoir is able to classify short input patterns with performance that decreases over time. In particular, we show that four distinct input patterns can be classified for 70 ns, even though the inputs are only provided to the reservoir for 7.5 ns.
The role of the feedback effect on physical reservoir computing is studied theoretically by solving the vortex-core dynamics in a nanostructured ferromagnet. Although the spin-transfer torque due to the feedback current makes the vortex dynamics complex, it is clarified that the feedback effect does not always contribute to the enhancement of the memory function in a physical reservoir. The memory function, characterized by the correlation coefficient between the input data and the dynamical response of the vortex core, becomes large when the delay time of the feedback current is not an integral multiple of the pulse width. On the other hand, the memory function remains small when the delay time is an integral multiple of the pulse width. As a result, a periodic behavior for the short-term memory capacity is observed with respect to the delay time, the phenomenon of which can be attributed to correlations between the virtual neurons via the feedback current.
This work describes preliminary steps towards nano-scale reservoir computing using quantum dots. Our research has focused on the development of an accumulator-based sensing system that reacts to changes in the environment, as well as the development of a software simulation. The investigated systems generate nonlinear responses to inputs that make them suitable for a physical implementation of a neural network. This development will enable miniaturisation of the neurons to the molecular level, leading to a range of applications including monitoring of changes in materials or structures. The system is based around the optical properties of quantum dots. The paper will report on experimental work on systems using Cadmium Selenide (CdSe) quantum dots and on the various methods to render the systems sensitive to pH, redox potential or specific ion concentration. Once the quantum dot-based systems are rendered sensitive to these triggers they can provide a distributed array that can monitor and transmit information on changes within the material.
A unique set of characteristics are packed in emerging nonvolatile reduction-oxidation (redox)-based resistive switching memories (ReRAMs) such as their underlying stochastic switching processes alongside their intrinsic highly nonlinear current-voltage characteristic, which in addition to known nano-fabrication process variation make them a promising candidate for the next generation of low-cost, low-power, tiny and secure Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs). This paper takes advantage of this otherwise disadvantageous ReRAM feature using a combination of novel architectural and peripheral circuitry. We present a physical one-way function, nonlinear resistive Physical Unclonable Function (nrPUF), potentially applicable in variety of cyber-physical security applications given its performance characteristics. We experimentally verified performance of Valency Change Mechanism (VCM)-based ReRAM in nano-fabricated crossbar arrays across multiple dies and runs. In addition to a massive pool of Challenge-Response Pairs (CRPs), using a combination of experimental and simulation, our proposed PUF shows a reliability of 98.67%, a uniqueness of 49.85%, a diffuseness of 49.86%, a uniformity of 47.28%, and a bit-aliasing of 47.48%.
Memtranstor that correlates charge and magnetic flux via nonlinear magnetoelectric effects has a great potential in developing next-generation nonvolatile devices. In addition to multi-level nonvolatile memory, we demonstrate here that nonvolatile logic gates such as NOR and NAND can be implemented in a single memtranstor made of the Ni/PMN-PT/Ni heterostructure. After applying two sequent voltage pulses (X1, X2) as the logic inputs on the memtranstor, the output magnetoelectric voltage can be positive high (logic 1), positive low (logic 0), or negative (logic 0), depending on the levels of X1 and X2. The underlying physical mechanism is related to the complete or partial reversal of ferroelectric polarization controlled by inputting selective voltage pulses, which determines the magnitude and sign of the magnetoelectric voltage coefficient. The combined functions of both memory and logic could enable the memtranstor as a promising candidate for future computing systems beyond von Neumann architecture.
