In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes a three-dimensional (3D) structure having a plurality of layers forming a neural network. Each layer comprises one or more conductors forming neurons with each neuron having neuron inputs and neuron outputs. The apparatus also includes synapse elements coupled between the neurons outputs and the neuron inputs of neurons in adjacent layers. Each synapse element comprises a material that applies a selected weight to signals passing between neurons connected to that synapse element.
