Intrinsic-Noise Consolidation: A Doob-Barrier-Conditioned Diffusion Turns Analog Device Noise into a Continual-Learning Resource

arXiv:2607.06924v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On analog neuromorphic hardware, intrinsic device noise is normally an accuracy tax. We ask whether it can instead consolidate memories. We cast per-synapse consolidation as a Doob h-transform: condition each weight's stochastic dynamics on never crossing a memory-critical barrier around its consolidated value. The conditioned diffusion gains an extra drift sigma^2 d/dw log h, a restoring force amplified by the noise variance itself that diverges at the barrier. We are explicit about novelty: the anchored drift -s(w-mu) our rule also contains is
