非常规计算系统必须在真实环境条件下表现出稳健性能,才能实现实际应用。我们此前提出,由应变诱导磁电耦合驱动的超顺磁性纳米点阵列,是极具潜力的超低功耗存算基底。然而,由于其动态受热激活效应支配,这些系统对环境温度波动天然敏感,导致在训练温度范围外运行时性能下降。本文模拟了温度变化对这类超顺磁性纳米点阵列磁化动力学的影响,并量化了其对任务性能的损害。研究发现,通过引入具有不同尺寸和热激活特征时间尺度的异质纳米点结构,可有效缓解该问题。在NARMA-10任务上的基准测试表明,优化后的异质性使存算系统在5-35℃宽温域内性能稳定,最终性能损失极小。我们还刻画了性能与温度稳定性之间的权衡关系,并证明可通过存算超参数进行调控。本研究为实现此类新型器件的实际部署迈出关键一步。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Unconventional computing systems must demonstrate robust performance under real-world environmental conditions to enable practical deployments. We have recently proposed superparamagnetic nanodot ensembles driven by strain-induced magnetoelectric coupling as exciting candidates for use as ultra-low energy consumption reservoir computing substrates. However, because their dynamics are governed by thermal activation effects, these systems are intrinsically sensitive to ambient temperature fluctuations, leading to degraded task performance when operated outside the temperature range used during training. In this paper we simulate how temperature variations affect the magnetization dynamics of such superparamagnetic ensembles, and quantify how this affects task performance. We then show how heterogeneous nanodot patterns that incorporate different sizes of nanodots with different characteristic timescales for thermal activation mitigate this problem. Benchmark results on the NARMA-10 task show that introducing optimized heterogeneity stabilizes performance of the reservoirs across a wide range of ambient temperatures (5-35°C), with little loss of ultimate performance. We also characterize the trade-off between performance and temperature stability and show that it can be tuned via reservoir hyperparameters. Our study demonstrates a key step in making these novel devices suitable for real-world deployment.
