A paper by researchers Jong-Won Back and Sungho Park from Professor Jong-Ho Lee’s research team in Seoul National University’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering was selected as the cover article for the June issue of Nano Energy (Impact Factor: 17.1), one of the world’s leading journals in the field of energy research.

This research introduced a novel binary neural network architecture utilizing three-dimensional NAND flash memory, reducing energy consumption by approximately 98% compared to conventional architectures. The proposed approach also addressed limitations of previous designs that were susceptible to interference from neighboring data, resulting in improved computational accuracy.

Given that 3D NAND flash memory is currently the most widely commercialized non-volatile memory technology, this work is expected to have significant implications for the development of low-power, high-performance neuromorphic computing systems based on commercially scalable memory platforms.
