    摘要: In one embodiment, a system includes one or more electronic neurons and one or more electronic axons. Each neuron is connected to at least one electronic axon via an electronic synapse, and at least one of the one or more electronic neurons is configured to store information in a membrane potential thereof and/or at least one of the one or more electronic axons is configured to store information in an axon delay buffer thereof to act as a memory. In another embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes storing information to a memory comprising electronic neurons and electronic axons. Information is stored in either a membrane potential of at least one of the electronic neurons or in an axon delay buffer of at least one of the electronic axons. Also, each neuron is connected to at least one electronic axon via an electronic synapse.

    摘要: Dynamic multiscale routing on networks of neurosynaptic cores with a feedback attention beam and short term memory with inhibition of return is provided. In various embodiments, an input topographic map is received at a spiking neuromorphic hardware system. A saliency map is received, associating a saliency value with each of a plurality of regions of the input topographic map. Based on the saliency map, a first of the plurality of regions in order of saliency value is routed. The first of the plurality of regions is suppressed. Based on the saliency map, a predetermined number of the plurality of regions are sequentially routed in order of saliency value.

    摘要: Low spike count ring buffer mechanisms on neuromorphic hardware are provided. A ring buffer comprises a plurality of memory cells. The plurality of memory cells comprises one or more neurosynaptic core. A demultiplexer is operatively coupled to the ring buffer. The demultiplexer is adapted to receive input comprising a plurality of spikes, and write sequentially to each of the plurality of memory cells. A plurality of output connectors is operatively coupled to the ring buffer. Each of the plurality of output connectors is adapted to provide an output based on contents of a subset of the plurality of memory cells.
