| description | A method for probabilistic computing is provided. The method comprises specifying a target distribution for a computational model, wherein the target distribution is defined by a function. A number of coin flips are performed with a number of weighted coinflip devices, wherein weights for the coinflip devices are determined by the function. The number of coinflips are then converted to a random number from the target distribution according to outputs of the weighted coinflip devices, wherein a circuit uses the coin flips as inputs to randomly activate bits in a binary representation of the random number. |
