| Popis: | In-memory computing with crosspoint resistive memory arrays has gained enormous attention to accelerate the matrix-vector multiplication in the computation of data-centric applications. By combining a crosspoint array and feedback amplifiers, it is possible to compute matrix eigenvectors in one step without algorithmic iterations. In this work, time complexity of the eigenvector computation is investigated, based on the feedback analysis of the crosspoint circuit. The results show that the computing time of the circuit is determined by the mismatch degree of the eigenvalues implemented in the circuit, which controls the rising speed of output voltages. For a dataset of random matrices, the time for computing the dominant eigenvector in the circuit is constant for various matrix sizes, namely the time complexity is O(1). The O(1) time complexity is also supported by simulations of PageRank of real-world datasets. This work paves the way for fast, energy-efficient accelerators for eigenvector computation in a wide range of practical applications. Comment: Accepted by Adv. Intell. Syst |
