CHAPTER 05 Artificial Intelligence Processors for Biomedical Circuits and Systems

In this chapter, we will discuss the topic of AI processors in the bio-medical circuit and systems with four subsections. Firstly, we will clearly define the definition and scope of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and deep learning with a detailed explanation of basic deep learning operations. Secondly, we will introduce various biomedical circuit and systems applying (deep) neural network techniques. Thirdly, we will cover some case studies for hardware implementation of deep learning processor. Lastly, as a future direction of the AI (deep learning) processor, we will introduce a neuromorphic computing with emerging nonvolatile memory (eNVM), which shows a promising potential for more efficient deep learning operation than traditional Von- Neumann architecture-based deep learning processor.
