Do So

AbstractBiologically inspired spiking neural networks are increasingly popular in the field of artificial intelligence due to their ability to solve complex problems while being power efficient. They do so by leveraging the timing of discrete spikes as main information carrier. Though, industrial applications are still lacking, partially because the question of how to encode incoming data into discrete spike events cannot be uniformly answered. In this paper, we summarise the signal encoding schemes presented in the literature and propose a uniform nomenclature to prevent the vague usage of ambiguous definitions. Therefore we survey both, the theoretical foundations as well as applications of the encoding schemes. This work provides a foundation in spiking signal encoding and gives an overview over different application-oriented implementations which utilise the schemes.

LogicSNN, a unified spiking neural networks (SNN) logical operation paradigm is proposed in this paper. First, we define the logical variables under the semantics of SNN. Then, we design the network structure of this paradigm and use spike-timing-dependent plasticity for training. According to this paradigm, six kinds of basic SNN binary logical operation modules and three kinds of combined logical networks based on these basic modules are implemented. Through these experiments, the rationality, cascading characteristics and the potential of building large-scale network of this paradigm are verified. This study fills in the blanks of the logical operation of SNN and provides a possible way to realize more complex machine learning capabilities.

Technical Interest

Spiking neural networks (SNN) are able to emulate real neural behavior with high confidence due to their bio-inspired nature. Many designs have been proposed for the implementation of SNN in hardware, although the realization of high-density and biologically-inspired SNN is currently a complex challenge of high scientific and technical interest. In this work, we propose a compact digital design for the implementation of high-volume SNN that considers the intrinsic stochastic processes present in biological neurons and enables high-density hardware implementation. The proposed stochastic SNN model (SSNN) is compared with previous SSNN models, achieving a higher processing speed. We also show how the proposed model can be scaled to high-volume neural networks trained by using back propagation and applied to a pattern classification task. The proposed model achieves better results compared with other recently-published SNN models configured with unsupervised STDP learning.
