Deep Spiking Neural Networks (DSNNs) excel in brain inspired computing by accurately emulating biological neural information processing through precise temporal coding.

Validation using the Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer (WDBC) dataset shows classification accuracies of 84.58% (training set) and 83.63% (test set), consistent with software simulation results.

摘要

Deep Spiking Neural Networks (DSNNs) excel in brain inspired computing by accurately emulating biological neural information processing through precise temporal coding. However, their implementation on von Neumann architectures suffers from low simulation efficiency and high hardware resource consumption. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel deep spiking neuromorphic chip based on a Multichannel Time-Multiplexed Architecture (MTMA). By synergistically combining the biological plausibility of the Spike Response Model (SRM) with the parallel computing advantages of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), we have developed a configurable hierarchical system incorporating Spiking Neural Processing Units (SNPUs) and Virtual Spiking Neurons (VSNs). Implementation on the Virtex-7 FPGA platform demonstrates that for a 32-72-48-4 network configuration, the 8-channel MTMA architecture achieves a 75% reduction in system delay (from 2.04ms to 0.84ms) compared to serial implementations, while maintaining resource utilization at merely 4.07% (LUT) and 1.71% (DSP) of a fully parallel architecture. Validation using the Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer (WDBC) dataset shows classification accuracies of 84.58% (training set) and 83.63% (test set), consistent with software simulation results.
