A Sparsity-Aware Spiking Neural Network Accelerator for Real-Time Gesture Recognition on Microcontroller-Class Edge Devices
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are highly touted as energy-efficient alternatives to traditional deep networks, because they process information in a sparse manner and rely on events. However, the vast majority of published accelerator work in SNN targets FPGA fabrics or dedicated neuromorphic chips – not the low-cost...
