Problems solved by technology

Software modeling and simulating spiking neural networks are relatively easy to implement and have a short development cycle, but software is generally based on von Neumann’s serial execution architecture, so for large-scale neural networks, software simulation requires a lot of simulation time and can be poor scalability

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a large-scale pulse neural network technology, in particular to a method for simulating a pulse neural network with a neuron hardware device. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of neuroscience has accumulated a lot of knowledge about the structure and function of the human brain. Studies have shown that the brain is composed of dense, complex interconnections of neurons, which exhibit many amazing properties, such as pattern recognition and decision-making control. The current understanding of biological neurons is that they transmit information and perform computations through the timing of spikes. The researchers proposed a computational model of spiking neural networks, which simulates behaviors such as information transmission between neurons and signal processing within neurons. At present, there are many fields using computing methods based on spiking neural networks, such as prediction, image processin...
