Abstract
Matrices are the foundation of science and engineering. For artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) tasks, developing a hardware efficient way to find the eigenvector of stochastic matrix (SM) is urgently in need. In this paper, inspired by the divide-and-conquer strategy, we proposed a new hardware architecture, which uses magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) to estimate the eigenvector of an n×n SM where n is the power of 2. This approach reduces the required device amount to log 2 n by converting the larger SM into 2-state sub-SMs which are further represented by stochastic signals generated by MTJs. The validity of this method has been demonstrated and statistically evaluated. This method provides a novel hardware solution to solve mathematic problems using emerging hardware technologies.
