Abstract
As the field of deep learning continues to expand, it has become increasingly important to develop energy-efficient hardware that can adapt to these advances. However, achieving learning on a chip requires the use of algorithms that are compatible with hardware and can be implemented on imperfect devices. One promising training technique is Equilibrium Propagation, which was introduced in 2017 by Yoshua Bengio. This approach provides gradient estimates based on a spatially local learning rule, making it more biologically plausible and better suited for hardware than backpropagation. However, the mathematical equations of this algorithm cannot be directly transposed to a physical system. In this study, Equilibrium Propagation algorithm is adapted to the use of a real physical system, and its potential application to spintronics devices is discussed.
