The gated recurrent unit (GRU) outperforms conventional artificial neural networks (ANNs) in tasks such as natural language processing, speech recognition, and machine translation, due to its superior capability in modeling long-range dependencies in sequential data. However, the GRU model is limited by its large parameter count and structural complexity, which presents a bottleneck in hardware circuit implementation. To this end, a memristor-based hybrid gated recurrent unit (HGRU) is proposed, which reduces the parameter count to 67% of the original GRU and shortens the single-step computation latency by 50%, while maintaining complete circuit functionality. Finally, the proposed memristor-based HGRU circuit model is evaluated on the MNIST digit recognition and IMDB sentiment analysis tasks, achieving recognition accuracies of 97% and 86.2%, respectively. Under equivalent parameter settings, it achieves runtime reductions of 37% and 52% compared to the standard GRU, thereby significantly enhancing computational efficiency.","PeriodicalId":449,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Nanotechnology","volume":"24 ","pages":"481-488"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145210098","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relationship between the mode of first discharge and electrode-plane setup conditions, such as various cathode shapes, applied voltages, and gap distances, is analyzed. The position where ring mode discharge occurs is correlated with the maximal electric field intensity during the discharge, which is generated by a combination of boundary charge and volume charge in the domain. It is found that in some cases, the discharge pulses can all be in ring mode. The first discharge tends to be in ring mode when the absolute value of applied voltage is lower, the semiaxis ratio <inline-formula> <tex-math>$a/b$ </tex-math></inline-formula> is larger, or the gap distance is longer.

The results are significantly influenced by both the collision cross sections and the calculation method, and additionally, the effect of humidity on the results is studied. Subsequently, the corona onset voltage of the wire–plane electrode is predicted by the photoionization criterion and measured in an artificial climate chamber. For the first time, the impact of IAC differences on the prediction of positive corona onset voltage under varying environments is analyzed. Experimental comparisons reveal that the impact is marked, especially under varying humidity conditions, where the impact trends are opposite.
