Efficiently passing messages in distributed spiking neural network simulation
Efficiently passing spiking messages in a neural model is an important aspect of high-performance simulation. As the scale of networks has increased so has the size of the computing systems required to simulate them. In addition, the information exchange of these resources has become more of an impediment to performance. In this paper we explore spike message passing using different mechanisms ...
متن کاملVectorized Algorithms for Spiking Neural Network Simulation
High-level languages (Matlab, Python) are popular in neuroscience because they are flexible and accelerate development. However, for simulating spiking neural networks, the cost of interpretation is a bottleneck. We describe a set of algorithms to simulate large spiking neural networks efficiently with high-level languages using vector-based operations. These algorithms constitute the core of B...
متن کاملDistributed, Event Driven Simulation of Spiking Neural Networks
We present the architecture of a simulator that is able to simulate large networks of spiking neurons using a distributed event driven simulation. Contrary to a time driven simulation, which is usually used to simulate spiking neural networks, our simulation needs less computational resources because of the low average activity of typical networks. The simulator is divided into a set of communi...
متن کاملGaussian and exponential lateral connectivity on distributed spiking neural network simulation
We measured the impact of long-range exponentially decaying intra-areal lateral connectivity on the scaling and memory occupation of a distributed spiking neural network simulator compared to that of short-range Gaussian decays. While previous studies adopted short-range connectivity, recent experimental neurosciences studies are pointing out the role of longer-range intra-areal connectivity wi...
متن کاملSaliency extraction with a distributed spiking neural network
We present a distributed spiking neuron network (SNN) for handling low-level visual perception in order to extract salient locations in robot camera images. We describe a new method which reduce the computional load of the whole system, stemming from our choices of architecture. We also describe a modeling of post-synaptic potential, which allows to quickly compute the contribution of a sum of ...
