Popis: | Bio-inspired hardware-based spiking neural networks (SNNs) has been suggested as a promising computing system with low power consumption and parallel operation. We propose the supervised on-chip training method approximating the backpropagation algorithm and the pulse scheme applicable to the hardware-based SNNs with the low memory dependency. The performance evaluation through the MNIST data set classification shows that the proposed system achieves a similar recognition rate compared to that of the software-based network. In addition, we also propose novel homeostasis functionality using bias synapse to achieve high performances. The homeostasis functionality well regulates the firing rate of the neurons and improves the recognition rate. The TFT-type flash memory cells are used as synaptic devices. A fully connected two-layer neural network with non-leaky integrate-and-fire (I&F) neurons is used in the simulation. We then investigate the effect of the variation of the hardware-based network on the recognition rate. The simulation results show that the proposed system is resistant to weight variation because on-chip training is adopted. |
