ABSTRACT

Neuromorphic technology is proposed to complement the shortcomings of existing artificial intelligence technology by mimicking the human brain structure and computational process with hardware. NA-IDE has also been proposed for developing neuromorphic hardware-based IoT applications. To implement an SNN model in NA-IDE, commonly used input data must be transformed for use in the SNN model. In this paper, we implemented a neural coding method encoder component that converts image data into a spike train signal and uses it as an SNN input. The decoder component is implemented to convert the output back to image data when the SNN model generates a spike train signal. If the decoder component uses the same parameters as the encoding process, it can generate static data similar to the original data. It can be used in fields such as image-to-image and speech-to-speech to transform and regenerate input data using the proposed encoder and decoder.
