NEUROMORPHIC COMPUTING – SPIKE NEURAL NETWORKS
Abstract
Neuromorphic computing is an evolving field with increasing practical applications. This paper will briefly present the principles of neuromorphic computing, as well as the results of implementation a Spiking Neural Network, where the synapses are trained to adjust their weights according to the corresponding inputs.
