Abstract

A device includes first wires, second wires, resistors, and a processor. Input signals are transmitted from the first wires through the resistors to the second wires. The processor receives a sum value of the input signals from one of the second wires, and shifts the sum value by a nonlinear activation function to generate a shifted sum value. The processor calculates a backpropagation value based on the shifted sum value and a target value, and generates a pulse number based on a corresponding input signal of the input signal and the backpropagation value. Each of a value of the corresponding input signal and the backpropagation value is higher than or equal to a threshold value. The processor applies a voltage pulse to one of the resistors related to the corresponding input signal based on the pulse number.
