Development of large scale neural network processor toward Brainway computing

摘要

Reports on a processor that is suitable for neural networking and the processor simulates 5000 neurons with 1000 connections each and flexible learning rules. Up to 100 of such processors can establish parallel connections with each other, so that the system performance will almost linearly increase 100 times by using 100 chips together. The modeling, learning rule, hardware, software and an example of application for the processor are discussed.
