Neuromorphic Solutions for Sensor Fusion and Continual Learning Systems: Applications in Drone Navigation and Radar Sensing

Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

Abstract

This book provides novel theoretical foundations and experimental demonstrations of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) in tasks such as radar gesture recognition for IoT devices and autonomous drone navigation using a fusion of retina-inspired event-based camera and radar sensing. The authors describe important new findings about the Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity (STDP) learning rule, which is widely believed to be one of the key learning mechanisms taking place in the brain. Readers will be enabled to create novel classes of edge AI and robotics applications, using highly energy- and area-efficient SNNs.
