Process variation in near-threshold wide SIMD architectures
Near-threshold operation has emerged as a competitive approach for energy-efficient architecture design. In particular, a combination of near-threshold circuit techniques and par...

The Permanent Requires Large Uniform Threshold Circuits
We show that thepermanent cannot be computed by uniform constantdepth threshold circuits of size Tn, for any function T such that for all k, Tk n = o2n. More generally, we show th...

Energy Complexity and Entropy of Threshold Circuits
Abstract. Circuits composed of threshold gates (McCulloch-Pitts neurons, or perceptrons) are simplified models of neural circuits with the advantage that they are theoretically mor...

Energy Complexity and Depth of Threshold Circuits
Abstract. In the paper we show that there is a close relationship between the energy complexity and the depth of threshold circuits computing any Boolean function although they hav...
