Journal ArticleDOI
A million spiking-neuron integrated circuit with a scalable communication network and interface
Paul A. Merolla,John V. Arthur,Rodrigo Alvarez-Icaza,Andrew S. Cassidy,Jun Sawada,Filipp Akopyan,Bryan L. Jackson,Nabil Imam,Chen Guo,Yutaka Nakamura,Bernard Brezzo,Ivan Vo,Steven K. Esser,Rathinakumar Appuswamy,Brian Taba,Arnon Amir,Myron D. Flickner,William P. Risk,Rajit Manohar,Dharmendra S. Modha +19 more
TL;DR: Inspired by the brain’s structure, an efficient, scalable, and flexible non–von Neumann architecture is developed that leverages contemporary silicon technology and is well suited to many applications that use complex neural networks in real time, for example, multiobject detection and classification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Convolutional networks for fast, energy-efficient neuromorphic computing
Steven K. Esser,Paul A. Merolla,John V. Arthur,Andrew S. Cassidy,Rathinakumar Appuswamy,Alexander Andreopoulos,David Berg,Jeffrey L. McKinstry,Timothy Melano,R Davis,Carmelo di Nolfo,Pallab Datta,Arnon Amir,Brian Taba,Myron D. Flickner,Dharmendra S. Modha +15 more
TL;DR: This approach allows the algorithmic power of deep learning to be merged with the efficiency of neuromorphic processors, bringing the promise of embedded, intelligent, brain-inspired computing one step closer.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Low Power, Fully Event-Based Gesture Recognition System
Arnon Amir,Brian Taba,David Berg,Timothy Melano,Jeffrey L. McKinstry,Carmelo di Nolfo,Tapan K. Nayak,Alexander Andreopoulos,Guillaume Garreau,Marcela Mendoza,Jeff Kusnitz,Michael DeBole,Steve K. Esser,Tobi Delbruck,Myron D. Flickner,Dharmendra S. Modha +15 more
TL;DR: This work presents the first gesture recognition system implemented end-to-end on event-based hardware, using a TrueNorth neurosynaptic processor to recognize hand gestures in real-time at low power from events streamed live by a Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Pupil detection and tracking using multiple light sources
TL;DR: Experimental results from a real-time implementation of the pupil detection technique show that this technique is very robust, and able to detect pupils using wide field of view low cost cameras under different illumination conditions, even for people with glasses, from considerable long distances.
IBM Research TRECVID 2004 Video Retrieval System.
