Efficient precise computation with noisy components : extrapolating from an electronic cochlea to the brain
Low-power wide-dynamic-range systems are extremely hard to build. The cochlea is one of the most awesome examples of such a system: It can sense sounds over 12 orders of magnitude in intensity, with an estimated power dissipation of only a few tens of microwatts. We describe an analog electronic co...
