BrainChip Announces the Akida™ Architecture, a Neuromorphic System-on-Chip

Quote
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BrainChip Holdings Ltd. (“BrainChip” or the “Company”) (ASX: BRN), the leading neuromorphic computing company, today establishes itself as the first company to bring a production spiking neural network architecture – the Akida Neuromorphic System-on-Chip (NSoC) – to market.

Akida NSoC: Biologically Inspired, Digitally Engineered
The Akida NSoC uses a pure CMOS logic process, ensuring high yields and low cost. Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are inherently lower power than traditional convolutional neural networks (CNNs), as they replace the math-intensive convolutions and back-propagation training methods with biologically inspired neuron functions and feed-forward training methodologies. BrainChip’s research has determined the optimal neuron model and training methods, bringing unprecedented efficiency and accuracy. Each Akida NSoC has effectively 1.2 million neurons and 10 billion synapses, representing 100 times better efficiency than neuromorphic test chips from Intel and IBM. Comparisons to leading CNN accelerator devices show similar performance gains of an order of magnitude better images/second/watt running industry standard benchmarks such as CIFAR-10 with comparable accuracy.
“Spiking neural networks are considered the third generation of neural networks,” said Peter van der Made, Founder and CTO of BrainChip. “The Akida NSoC is the culmination of decades of research to determine the optimum neuron model and innovative training methodologies.”

Just like the human brain...what if it gets angry?  :P

"But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.  Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest."

-- SECOND KINGS 19: 27-28, as quoted by SKYNET.

Starting to sound more and more like Skynet  8)

probably can't become angry yet, but what if it becomes self aware? Add a touch of paranoia and then let it develope emotions like anger...

can't see that being a positive thing
Look closely: See clearly: Think deeply; and Choose wisely...

No, "inspired" in the way human neurons work, which is not the same.

That's good... We don't need to add the human stupidity element to it.  ;D

I don't  want a brain chip.  I would rather have potato chips.
