Stable distributions are well-known for their desirable properties and can effectively fit data with heavy tail. However, due to the lack of an explicit probability density function and finite second ...

Perceptual judgments of ambiguous stimuli are often biased by prior expectations. These biases may offer a window into the neural computations that give rise to perceptual interpretations of the ...

Abstract: In this paper we present a novel memristive circuit that is capable of generating tunable stochastic distributions. The proposed circuit leverages the inherent read noise of the memristor ...
