Simulation of Evolable Hardware to Solve Low Level Image Processing Tasks

چکیده
The long term goal of the work described in this paper is the development of a bio-inspired system, employing evolvable hardware, that adapts according to the needs of the environment in which it is deployed. The application described here is the design of a novel and highly parallel image processing tool to detect edges within a wide range of conventional grey-scale images. We discuss the simulation of such a system based on a genetic programming paradigm, using a simple binary logic tree to implement the genetic string coding. The results acquired from the simulation are compared with those obtained from the application of a conventional Sobel edge detector, and although rudimentary, show the great potential of such bio-inspired systems.

متن کاملNeuroPipe-Chip: A digital neuro-processor for spiking neural networks
Computing complex spiking artificial neural networks (SANNs) on conventional hardware platforms is far from reaching real-time requirements. Therefore we propose a neuro-processor, called NeuroPipe-Chip, as part of an accelerator board. In this paper, we introduce two new concepts on chip-level to speed up the computation of SANNs. These concepts are implemented in a prototype of the NeuroPipe-...
