Emergent activation functions from a stochastic bit stream neuron

In this paper we present the results of experimental work that demonstrates the generation of linear and sigmoid activation functions in a digital stochastic bit-stream neuron. These activation functions are generated by a stochastic process and require no additional hardware, allowing the design of...
