Abstract
We propose a spintronics-based hardware implementation of neuromorphic computing, specifically, the spiking neural network, using topological winding textures in one-dimensional antiferromagnets. The consistency of such a network is emphasized in light of the conservation of topological charges, and the natural spatiotemporal interconversions of magnetic winding. We discuss the realization of the leaky integrate-and-fire behavior of neurons and the spike-timing-dependent plasticity of synapses. Our proposal opens the possibility for an all-spin neuromorphic platform based on antiferromagnetic insulators.
