Stochastic models of memristive behavior

Abstract

Under normal operations, memristive devices undergo variability in time and space and have internal dynamics. Interplay of memory and stochastic signal processing in memristive devices makes them candidates for performing bio-inspired tasks of information transduction and transformation, where intrinsic random behavior can be harnessed for high performance of circuits built up of individual memory storing elements. The paper discusses models of single memristive devices exhibiting both - dynamic hysteresis and Stochastic Resonance, addressing also the cooperative effect of correlated noises acting on the system and occurrence of dirty hysteretic rounding.
