Tyumen scientists have developed a biomorphic neuroprocessor

As the university press service said, existing neuroprocessors are designed for hardware acceleration

calculations in artificial neural networks onsimple neurons and enable computer vision, machine learning and other systems with weak artificial intelligence (AI). Information processing and decision-making in such processors occurs by selecting the most plausible solution based on previously established associations.

Unlike existing neuroprocessors withsimple neurons, the biomorphic neuroprocessor we presented makes it possible to make decisions not only on the basis of pre-established associations, but also on the basis of new associations formed during signal processing in dynamically changing conditions.

The new neuroprocessor, according to the creators,capable of generating new associations, or new knowledge, through a biologically similar mechanism. This means that the AI ​​is becoming stronger: it will already be able to comprehend new information. 

The new device will help increase the speed and energy efficiency of calculations compared to existing PCs and supercomputers. 

At the moment, the research group continues testing the new system. It is planned to launch small-scale production in 2025.
