ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 25 -- United States Patent no. 12,718,076, issued on Aug. 25, was assigned to Georgia Tech Research Corp. (Atlanta).
"Mixed signal computing-in-memory solver for integer constrained least square problems" was invented by Narasimha Vasishta Kidambi (Atlanta) and Saibal Mukhopadhyay (Atlanta).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A mixed signal computing-in-memory (CIM) system solves integer constrained least square (ICLS) optimization problems through parallel analog computation within memory arrays. The system transforms ICLS problems into energy minimization problems solved using Hopfield neural network dynamics. A first CIM component performs iterative optimization using quant...
