Embodiments of the invention provide a method comprising receiving a set of features extracted from input data, training a linear classifier based on the set of features extracted, and generating a first matrix using the linear classifier. The first matrix includes multiple dimensions. Each dimension includes multiple elements. Elements of a first dimension correspond to the set of features extracted. Elements of a second dimension correspond to a set of classification labels. The elements of the second dimension are arranged based on one or more synaptic weight arrangements. Each synaptic weight arrangement represents effective synaptic strengths for a classification label of the set of classification labels. The neurosynaptic core circuit is programmed with synaptic connectivity information based on the synaptic weight arrangements. The core circuit is configured to classify one or more objects of interest in the input data.

Embodiments of the invention provide a method of visual saliency estimation comprising receiving an input sequence of image frames. Each image frame has one or more channels, and each channel has one or more pixels. The method further comprises, for each channel of each image frame, generating corresponding neural spiking data based on a pixel intensity of each pixel of the channel, generating a corresponding multi-scale data structure based on the corresponding neural spiking data, and extracting a corresponding map of features from the corresponding multi-scale data structure. The multi-scale data structure comprises one or more data layers, wherein each data layer represents a spike representation of pixel intensities of a channel at a corresponding scale. The method further comprises encoding each map of features extracted as neural spikes.
