We demonstrate that extremely low resolution quantized (nominally 5-state) synapses with large stochastic variations in Domain Wall (DW) position can be both energy efficient and achieve reasonably high testing accuracies compared to Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) of similar sizes using floating precision synaptic weights.
