Abstract
Memristive convolutional neural network accelerator has attracted intensive interest in reducing time and energy consumption. In this article, we analysis the viability of the quantization method using LeNet-5 model on MNIST dataset. Low bit-precision quantization is achieved with slight accuracy loss. The fabricated bilayer AlO x memristor with 3-bit states is used to emulate the synapse, and an accuracy of 97.93% is accomplished within the device nonideality. Furthermore, the device requirements of variation and reliability on inference application are evaluated and proposed.
