  text: Recent progress in artificial intelligence is largely attributed to the rapid
    development of machine learning, especially in the algorithm and neural network
    models. However, it is the performance of the hardware, in particular the energy
    efficiency of a computing system that sets the fundamental limit of the capability
    of machine learning. Data-centric computing requires a revolution in hardware
    systems, since traditional digital computers based on transistors and the von
    Neumann architecture were not purposely designed for neuromorphic computing. A
    hardware platform based on emerging devices and new architecture is the hope for
    future computing with dramatically improved throughput and energy efficiency.
    Building such a system, nevertheless, faces a number of challenges, ranging from
    materials selection, device optimization, circuit fabrication and system integration,
    to name a few. The aim of this Roadmap is to present a snapshot of emerging hardware
    technologies that are potentially beneficial for machine learning, providing the
    Nanotechnology readers with a perspective of challenges and opportunities in this
    burgeoning field.
