Tasks:

1. To review Wang/Chua’s triangular periodic table of elementary circuit elements to identify any missing links;
2. To simulate CNN with memory based on Prof Steve Furber’s Spinnaker.

Progress: 

Chau and Wang have reviewed their triangular periodic table of elementary circuit elements and identified a few missing links. They then conducted research on modelling of nano memristor devices, nonlinear dynamics and bifurcations in the Hodgkin-Huxley model, local activity principle, and edge of chaos and simulated CNN with memory based on Prof Steve Furber’s Spinnaker.

Measurable outputs:

Their work led to below publications by Wang’s PhD students:
