Neuromorphic and synaptronic spiking neural network crossbar circuits with synaptic weights learned using a one-to-one correspondence with a simulation

摘要

Embodiments of the invention provide neuromorphic-synaptronic systems, including neuromorphic-synaptronic circuit chips implementing spiking neural network with synaptic weights learned using simulation. One embodiment includes simulating a spiking neural network to generate synaptic weights learned via the simulation while maintaining one-to-one correspondence between the simulation and a digital circuit chip. The learned synaptic weights are loaded into the digital circuit chip implementing a spiking neural network, the digital circuit chip comprising a neuromorphic-synaptronic spiking neural network including plural synapse devices interconnecting multiple digital neurons.
