Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Memory and storage are the core components of various computing systems, including artificial intelligence processors, general-purpose computing systems, and quantum computing systems. In both Von Neumann and non-Von Neumann computer architecture, the data movements and data flow are crucial to the performance of the computing system. In this Special Issue, we are seeking new insights, emerging technologies, and solutions with memory/storage innovations to improve the performance of computing systems. Particularly, we are looking for research on memory/storage optimization for embedded artificial intelligence processors, artificial intelligence processors with computing-in-memory architecture, artificial intelligent processors with emerging non-volatile memory, emerging memory technologies for novel applications, artificial intelligence processors for quantum computing, memory/storage innovations for large-scale models, EDA technologies for memory/storage optimization, novel material/devices for high-performance memory/storage, the endurance improvement method for non-volatile memory, 3-D technology for storage devices, etc. We welcome memory/storage-related researchers to contribute to this Special Issue.

Empathy is the emotional capacity to feel and understand the emotions experienced by other human beings from within their frame of reference. As a unique psychological faculty, empathy is an important source of motivation to behave altruistically and cooperatively. Although human-like emotion should be a critical component in the construction of artificial intelligence (AI), the discovery of emotional elements such as empathy is subject to complexity and uncertainty. In this work, we demonstrated an interesting electrical device (i.e., an MXene (Ti3C2) memristor) and successfully exploited the device to emulate a psychological model of “empathic blame”. To emulate this affective reaction, MXene was introduced into memristive devices because of its interesting structure and ionic capacity. Additionally, depending on several rehearsal repetitions, self-adaptive characteristic of the memristive weights corresponded to different levels of empathy. Moreover, an artificial neural system was designed to analogously realize a moral judgment with empathy. This work may indicate a breakthrough in making cool machines manifest real voltage-motivated feelings at the level of the hardware rather than the algorithm. Full article
