From materials to applications: a review of research on artificial olfactory memory.

Abstract

Olfactory memory forms the basis for biological perception and environmental adaptation. Advancing artificial intelligence to replicate this biological perception as artificial olfactory memory is essential. The widespread use of various robotic systems, intelligent wearable devices, and artificial olfactory memories modeled after biological olfactory memory is anticipated. This review paper highlights current developments in the design and application of artificial olfactory memory, using examples from materials science, gas sensing, and storage systems. These innovations in gas sensing and neuromorphic technology represent the cutting edge of the field. They provide a robust scientific foundation for the study of intelligent bionic devices and the development of hardware architectures for artificial intelligence. Artificial olfaction will pave the way for future advancements in intelligent recognition by progressively enhancing the level of integration, understanding of mechanisms, and application techniques of machine learning algorithms.
