Abstract(in English) This paper provides an overview of the recent development of my noise-driven VLSI circuits whose architectures were inspired by biological nervous systems. Noises are inevitable under natural environment, however, one usually tries to 'attenuate' noises and fluctuations on VLSIs by using, for example, special shielding equipments, precise fabrication process, special layout or circuit techniques, and so on. On the other hand, biological systems certainly 'exploit' noises to increase performances on neural computation. In this paper. three examples of noise-driven neural computing on analog VLSIs are presented, which may show what the noise-driven VLSI circuits can do now, and what they may do in the future.
