  • Event-based extraction of features in a convolutional spiking neural network
    Patent number: 11989645
    Abstract: A system is described that comprises a memory for storing data representative of at least one kernel, a plurality of spiking neuron circuits, and an input module for receiving spikes related to digital data. Each spike is relevant to a spiking neuron circuit and each spike has an associated spatial coordinate corresponding to a location in an input spike array. The system also comprises a transformation module configured to transform a kernel to produce a transformed kernel having an increased resolution relative to the kernel, and/or transform the input spike array to produce a transformed input spike array having an increased resolution relative to the input spike array.
