Abstract
In a semiconductor device which calculates an interaction model, a technique capable of executing interaction calculation in non-synchronization with a clock is provided. The semiconductor device includes a plurality of units each of which includes: a first memory cell for storing a value indicating a state of one node of an interaction model; a second memory cell for storing an interaction coefficient indicating an interaction from a node connected to the one node; and an interaction calculation circuit for determining a value indicating a next state of the one node based on a current determined by a value indicating a state of the connected node and the interaction coefficient.
