A Neuromorphic Spiking Neural Network Detects Epileptic High Frequency Oscillations in the Scalp EEG
(2021)Research SquareBackground: Interictal High Frequency Oscillations (HFO) are measurable in scalp EEG. This has aroused interest in investigating their potential as biomarkers of epileptogenesis, seizure propensity, disease severity, and treatment response. The demand for therapy monitoring in epilepsy has kindled interest in compact wearable electronic devices for long- term EEG recording. Spiking neural networks (SNN) have been shown to be optimal ...Working Paper -
Modelling novelty detection in the thalamocortical loop
(2021)bioRxivIn complex natural environments, sensory systems are constantly exposed to a large stream of inputs. Novel or rare stimuli, which are often associated with behaviorally important events, are typically processed differently than the steady sensory background, which has less relevance. Neural signatures of such differential processing, commonly referred to as novelty detection, have been identified on the level of EEG recordings as mismatch ...Working Paper -
MEMSORN: Self-organization of an inhomogeneous memristive hardware for sequence learning
(2021)Research SquareLearning is a fundamental component for creating intelligent machines. Biological intelligence orchestrates synaptic and neuronal learning at multiple time-scales to self-organize populations of neurons for solving complex tasks. Inspired by this, we design and experimentally demonstrate an adaptive hardware architecture Memristive Self-organizing Spiking Recurrent Neural Network (MEMSORN). MEMSORN incorporates resistive memory (RRAM) in ...Working Paper -
Online Training of Spiking Recurrent Neural Networks with Phase-Change Memory Synapses
(2021)arXivSpiking recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are a promising tool for solving a wide variety of complex cognitive and motor tasks, due to their rich temporal dynamics and sparse processing. However training spiking RNNs on dedicated neuromorphic hardware is still an open challenge. This is due mainly to the lack of local, hardware-friendly learning mechanisms that can solve the temporal credit assignment problem and ensure stable network ...Working Paper -
The neuromorphic Mosaic: re-configurable in-memory small-world graphs
(2021)Research SquareThanks to their non-volatile and multi-bit properties, memristors have been extensively used as synaptic weight elements in neuromorphic architectures. However, their use to define and re-program the network connectivity has been overlooked. Here, we propose, implement and experimentally demonstrate Mosaic, a neuromorphic architecture based on a systolic array of memristor crossbars. For the first time, we use distributed non-volatile ...Working Paper
