Abstract
Embodiments herein disclose computer-implemented methods, computer program products and computer systems for balancing neural network weight asymmetries. The computer-implemented method may include providing a neural network with weights comprising one or more major conductance pairs and one or more minor conductance pairs. The method may further include programming the one or more major conductance pairs to force an inference output to an expected duration value, determining a positive weight coefficient based on the one or more major conductance pairs and a negative weight coefficient based on the one or more minor conductance pairs, determining one or more target weights based on one or more of the positive weight coefficient and the negative weight coefficient, programming the one or more minor conductance pairs to force the inference output to the expected duration value, and programming the one or more major conductance pairs with the one or more target weights.
