Knowm Inc., a start-up pioneering next-generation advanced computing architectures and technology, today announced they are the first to develop and make commercially-available memristors with bi-directional incremental learning capability. The device was developed through research from Boise State University's Dr. Kris Campbell, and this new data unequivocally confirms Knowm's memristors are capable of bi-directional incremental learning. This has been previously deemed impossible in filamentary devices by Knowm's competitors, including IBM, despite significant investment in materials, research and development. With this advancement, Knowm delivers the first commercial memristors that can adjust resistance in incremental steps in both direction rather than only one direction with an all-or-nothing ‘erase'. This advancement opens the gateway to extremely efficient and powerful machine learning and artificial intelligence applications.
