Memristor-Based Neural Network Circuit of Emotion Congruent Memory With Mental Fatigue and Emotion Inhibition.

Abstract

Most memristor-based neural networks only consider a single mode of memory or emotion, but ignore the relationship between emotion and memory. In this paper, a memristor-based neural network circuit of emotion congruent memory is proposed and verified by the simulation results. The designed circuit consists of a memory module, an emotion module and an association neuron module. Varieties of memory and emotion functions are considered. The functions such as learning, forgetting, variable rate and emotion generation are implemented by the circuit. Furthermore, mental fatigue and emotion inhibition which are two important self-protective measures of the brain are realized in this paper on the basis of emotion congruent memory. Finally, the paper also considers the congruence between emotion and memory materials and the regulation of emotion on memory. The neural network circuit of emotion congruent memory can provide more references for the application of memristor.
