Toward a New Generation of Neuromorphic Computing: IBM & ETH Zurich’s Biologically Inspired Optimizer Boosts FCNN and SNN Training

IBM and ETH Zurich researchers make progress in reconciling neurophysiological insights with machine intelligence, proposing a novel biologically inspired optimizer for artificial (ANNs) and spiking neural networks (SNNs) that incorporates synaptic integration principles from biology. GRAPES (Group Responsibility for Adjusting the Propagation of Error Signals) leads to improvements in the training time convergence, accuracy and scalability of ANNs and SNNs.

ETH Zurich Leverages Spiking Neural Networks To Build Ultra-Low-Power Neuromorphic Processors

A research team from ETH Zurich leverages existing spike-based learning circuits to propose a biologically plausible architecture that is highly successful in classifying distinct and complex spatio-temporal spike patterns. The work contributes to the design of ultra-low-power mixed-signal neuromorphic processing systems capable of distinguishing spatio-temporal patterns in spiking activity.
