  • ARTIFICIAL NEURON
    Publication number: 20260161935
    Abstract: An artificial neuron includes a first capacitive node of application of a membrane potential of the neuron. A first transistor is configured to discharge the first capacitive node. A second capacitive node is driven according to the membrane potential and delivers a potential for controlling the first transistor. A second transistor is configured to discharge the second capacitive node. The second transistor is controlled according to a potential present at the second capacitive node.
    Type: Application

  • CODING OF AN EVENT IN AN ANALOG DATA FLOW WITH A FIRST EVENT DETECTION SPIKE AND A SECOND DELAYED SPIKE
    Publication number: 20250335754
    Abstract: A set of spike pattern data is stored on a set of storage neurons of a neural network. The storing includes storing first parameters indicative of a presence of spikes on respective neurons of the set of storage neurons, and storing, on the set of storage neurons of the neural network, second parameters indicative of a timing of spikes on the respective neurons of the set of storage neurons.

  • Coding of an event in an analog data flow with a first event detection spike and a second delayed spike
    Patent number: 12373674
    Abstract: A method includes generating, by a first spiking neuron, an event detection signal indicating a time of detection of an event in a data flow. The event detection signal is transmitted from the first spiking neuron to a second spiking neuron. The second spiking neuron generates a spike delayed, with respect to the time of detection of the event, according to an amplitude of the event. The delayed spike is included in a coded signal.
