Abstract

The integration of memristor-based nanodevices into machine learning systems has garnered significant attention due to their rapid, low-energy, and nonvolatile switching capabilities. Memristors, with their unique ability to retain an internal resistance state based on voltage and current history, excel in executing core operations like vector matrix multiplication, addressing the von Neumann bottleneck. This review explores the synergy between memristors and machine learning, highlighting their potential to enhance neuromorphic computing through energy-efficient and highly parallel architectures. The paper examines current research, practical implementations, and emerging challenges, providing a comprehensive analysis of the future directions in this interdisciplinary field.
