1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- applying a first voltage to a memory in a neural network, wherein the memory includes one or more memory cells;
determining, by a processor, that a first memory cell in the memory is faulty at the first voltage, wherein the first voltage is a low voltage;
identifying a first factor in the neural network, wherein the first factor has a low criticality in the neural network;
determining to store the first factor in the first memory cell; and
storing the first factor in the first memory cell.

Abstract
A first voltage may be applied to a memory in a neural network. The memory may include one or more memory cells. A processor may determine that a first memory cell in the memory is faulty at the first voltage. The first voltage may be a low voltage. The processor may identify a first factor in the neural network. The first factor may have a low criticality in the neural network. The processor may determine to store the first factor in the first memory cell. The processor may store the first factor in the first memory cell.

10. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
generating, by a processor, a first test pattern, wherein the first test pattern includes a first write operation at two or more voltages; applying the first test pattern to a memory in a neural network, wherein the memory includes one or more memory cells, and wherein each memory cell attempts to perform the first write operation at each of the two or more voltages; determining, in response to applying the first test pattern to the memory, that a first memory cell does not operate correctly at a first voltage; and determining that the first memory cell operates correctly at a second voltage, wherein the second voltage is above the first voltage. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
