초록

Neuromorphic hardware refers to brain-inspired computers or components that model an artificial neural network comprising densely connected parallel neurons and synapses. The major element in the widespread deployment of neural networks in embedded devices are efficient architecture for neuromorphic hardware with regard to performance, power consumption, and chip area. Spiking neural networks (SiNNs) are brain-inspired in which the communication among neurons is modeled in the form of spikes. Owing to brainlike operating modes, SNNs can be power efficient. However, issues still exist with research and actual application of SNNs. In this issue, we focus on the technology development cases and market trends of two typical tracks, which are listed above, from the point of view of artificial intelligence neuromorphic circuits and subsequently describe their future development prospects.
