Researchers at Radboud University have demonstrated a new method for chemical reservoir computation using the formose reaction, a self-organizing chemical network. This approach enables complex computational tasks, such as nonlinear classification and predicting dynamic systems, by leveraging the unique properties of the formose reaction. The study explores how these chemical networks can process information without external programming, offering insights into both the origins of life and the future of neuromorphic computing. The system’s capabilities include Boolean logic operations and forecasting chaotic systems.
