Imitating neural architecture
Neuromorphic describes technology designed to mimic the structure and function of biological neural systems.
Neuromorphic chips and computing architectures process information more like brains than conventional computers—using networks of artificial neurons that fire in patterns rather than executing sequential instructions.
The approach promises greater efficiency for tasks like pattern recognition and sensory processing.
