Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
FY2020 was an extension period to conclude publication of results and spend remaining money. I published a paper regarding a functional neuromorphic circuit that mimics the way animals and humans detect sound directionality (i.e., it implements the Jeffress model). I also implemented an artificial neuron that fires by using the insulator-to-metal transition in Mott materials. The money was used to pay the publication fees of the article and to buy electronics components to implement the artificial neuron.
