An Energy-Efficient Spiking Neural Network for Finger Velocity Decoding for Implantable Brain-Machine Interface
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) are promising for motor rehabilitation and mobility augmentation. High-accuracy and low-power algorithms are required to achieve implantable BMI systems. In this paper, we propose a novel spiking neural network (SNN) decoder for implantable BMI regression tasks. The SNN is trained with enhanced spatio-temporal backpropagation to fully leverage its ability in handling temporal problems. The proposed SNN decoder achieves the same level of correlation coefficient as the state-of-the-art ANN decoder in offline finger velocity decoding tasks, while it requires only 6.8% of the computation operations and 9.4% of the memory access.
