Noise-based logic is a new approach inspired by the fact that the
neural spike trains in the
brain are usually stochastic.
Potential
advantages, among others, are: noise-bits
(similar to qubits)
with hyperspace vector products offering 2^N orthogonal vectors
and 2^(2^N) logic values in a single wire;
reduced power dissipation; analog circuits (with natural saturation
thresholds); switching errors do not propagate/accumulate; robustness
against noises and other usual types of interference (ground plane EMI,
transients, etc).
New deterministic, multivalued logic scheme, and
neural circuitry
(logic gates) proposed to understand the brain.
Able to perform intelligently:
quick decisions, based on a small amount of information, with
reasonably low error rate.

signals is not enough? The answer is: noise can be exponentially
