  • Publication number: 20230421917
    Abstract: A frame image conversion spike system is disclosed. In order to solve the technical problem of high power consumption when converting a frame image into a spike event, a frame rate or difference frame frequency is adaptively adjusted according to the amount of effective pixel change between frame images, so as to reduce system power consumption and adaptively respond to scene application needs. In order to solve the issue of low inference accuracy after converting frame images into spike events and directly applying them to an SNN processor, a global randomization scheme is proposed considering the randomization process of images as a whole. It has opened up all the links of applying a frame image sensor to the SNN processor and provided an alternative to an event camera. This is suitable for a brain-inspired chip and AIoT field.
