A Scatter-and-Gather Spiking Convolutional Neural Network on a Reconfigurable Neuromorphic Hardware

Artificial neural networks (ANNs), like convolutional neural networks (CNNs), have achieved the state-of-the-art results for many machine learning tasks. However, inference with large-scale full-precision CNNs must cause substantial energy consumption and memory occupation, which seriously hinders their deployment on mobile and embedded systems. Highly inspired from biological brain, spiking neural networks (SNNs) are emerging as new solutions...
