Abstract
A system for physics-based learning and computation including two networks, each having a plurality of identical edges and feedback circuitry to compare the voltage drop at a given edge of the first network with the voltage drop at the corresponding edge of the second network. In both networks, at least one corresponding node is designated for input and at least one corresponding node is designated for output. In the first network, the at least one output node remains free and produces output voltage in response to the input voltage(s). In the second network, the at least one output node is clamped at voltage(s) closer to the desired value for the specified input voltage(s). Feedback circuitry compares voltages across corresponding edges and adjusts their effective resistances in order to learn.
