Abstract

This study presents the computational modeling and simulation of silver nanoparticle networks (NPNs), which, in the realm of neuromorphic computation, suggest to be a promising candidate for nontraditional computation methods. The modeling of the networks construction, its electrical properties and model parameters are derived from well-established physical principles.
