BRN Discussion Ongoing

* Christmas wish for the manipulators: I hope their bots raise piles and piles ...
Those smug A-holes already have plenty.
That's why they wear loose fitting ones..

But I'm sure they'll relish a few more, so your Christmas wish to them, will be much appreciated.

Thank you manny.........as time has passed since Mercedes Benz gave us their glowing assessment during CES (from memory) in January
2022 when my shares jumped millions in value, I am happy to share that I actually asked Peter directly at the time, if we (the company)
were allowed to comment, since Mercedes decided to name us (despite an NDA) from my understanding

Thank you manny.........as time has passed since Mercedes Benz gave us their glowing assessment during CES (from memory) in January
2022 when my shares jumped millions in value, I am happy to share that I actually asked Peter directly at the time, if we (the company)
were allowed to comment, since Mercedes decided to name us (despite an NDA) from my understanding at the time.

His reply (at that time) was, yes we can comment now because Mercedes are a client.....since then, my view has never changed, I am
quite comfortable in knowing that we (were) or (still) are involved with Mercedes in some way.

Like many before me have stated, including Sean, to succeed in the technology space, a lot of different companies (have) to accept, we
all (need) each other to succeed to bring products forward to the masses, all (many) companies bring something to the table, that I
have learnt through research.

Some posters (without) naming anyone, tend to view things as black and white....but because of all the secrecy involved in bringing
disruptive technology to bear, the area hidden in a cloak of mist, is called grey (matter).

We are still part of the overall equation, in my humble opinion.

No Regerts (damn tattoo) :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Tech.
Hi TECH, It appears a similar situation exists between us and Tata Elxsi as we have with Mercedes.
My post from over on the crapper.
"Anyone for a Tata Elxsi 5year 'profitable overnight deal' in 2025?
Tata Elxsi in 2023 publicly committed to using AKIDA.
"By partnering with BrainChip and implementing Akida technology into medical and industrial solutions, we are able to deliver innovative solutions at a faster time to market than otherwise possible."
See link below dated 30/8/23 from the Tata website.
Since the BRN/Tata partnership there has been TOTAL silence from BRN. NDA?
Tata Elxsi however have been publicly confirming the partnership.
See also link below from the 2023/24 Annual report. Page 6."

Mercedes seeking a PhD commencing Feb 2025!

50/50 chance being Loihi based on previous studies.

Project overview:

We are looking for a PhD student for our innovative project to develop an end-to-end autonomous neuromorphic driving system. Based on methods of neuromorphic computing (e.g. Spiking Neural Networks), new models are developed and their energy consumption and computing efficiency are tested in a simulator for a neuromorphic chip. The project is a collaboration between Mercedes-Benz AG and the University of Waterloo (Canada). The successful applicant will be contacted by Prof. Hendrik Lensch (University of Tübingen) and Prof. Chris Eliasmith (University of Waterloo). During the doctorate, several research stays at the University of Waterloo are planned for the doctoral student

Surely something is due out of this. Like how Lockheed Martin are involved along with Penn State. Don't like how they have versions with Intel and us. Just need US Gov to go big on us for there cyber security.

I’m still excited about what Akida1000 can do. Gen 2 with TENNs must be impressive. How good is this?


APPLICATION​

A single SNAP Card, deployed on an airborne ISR platform, occupying only one 3U VPX slot, could deploy up to five complex machine learning algorithms across each of its onboard processors to perform the following missions simultaneously.

– Automated Target Recognition (ATR) on full motion video feeds and imagery (to include 4k and higher)​

– Real-time detection and identification of threat radars and their acquisition/operating modes​

– Detection of FISINT (Foreign Instrumentation Signature Intelligence) and/or hacking across the airframe’s 1553 communications bus​

– Perform communications analysis to include speech-to-text and foreign language translation of intercepted communications​

– Fuse multiple infrared cameras (e.g., SWIR, MWIR, LWIR) to provide a combined infrared operating picture on the ground Multi-user, simultaneous modulation/demodulation​

Chris Eliasmith, who seems to be quite a polymath, is also CTO of ABR. Some of ABR's patents seem to have sprung from Canada's equivalent of CSIRO.

MB signed an MOU with Ontario in 2022 for cooperation across the electric vehicle chain. In addition to the Wellington Uni research centre linked to Eliasmith, MB has joined the Ontario start-up incubator OVIN.

ABR have patents for their own in-house NN. A sampling follows:

WO2024197396A1 EVENT-BASED NEURAL NETWORK PROCESSING SYSTEM 20230326

1734516150430.png



[0027] The disclosed processing system is highly flexible, in that individual processing elements performing the neural network evaluation can in principle be arranged and connected in any manner. For example, in the processing system may be customized for specific purposes by instantiating the individual components of the system in a hardware description language (e.g., SystemVerilog™) and can be modified by the person of ordinary skill in the art without requiring deep understanding of low-level implementation details. Furthermore, the individual components of the processing system place relatively few constraints on possible connectivity. For instance, the event bus system supports an arbitrary number of input ports by automatically distributing events through a balanced binary tree of bus arbiters, and phase synchronisation and pipelining happens automatically through stream connections. This enables the processing system to be scaled to field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) of various sizes, and to be adapted to support specific neural network topologies. For example, a specific class of networks may require many neurons in the first layers, but only a few neurons in subsequent layers. The network topology can be adapted accordingly.

[0029] To support 2D convolution, the disclosed processing system tags events with 2D coordinates that describe what source location the event corresponds to. This source location determines what target neurons need to be updated

US2021133568A1 METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TRAINING MULTI-BIT SPIKING NEURAL NETWORKS FOR EFFICIENT IMPLEMENTATION ON DIGITAL HARDWARE 20191101

Recurrent neural networks are efficiently mapped to hardware computation blocks specifically designed for Legendre Memory Unit (LMU) cells, Projected LSTM cells, and Feed Forward cells. Iterative resource allocation algorithms are used to partition recurrent neural networks and time multiplex them onto a spatial distribution of computation blocks, guided by multivariable optimizations for power, performance, and accuracy. Embodiments of the invention provide systems for low power, high performance deployment of recurrent neural networks for battery sensitive applications such as automatic speech recognition (ASR), keyword spotting (KWS), biomedical signal processing, and other applications that involve processing time-series data.


The research may involve additional NN players other than the usual suspects.

Great to see someone (not looked for others yet) in a Dev Community is across Akida. There's a few posts on neuromorphic but haven't flicked through them yet.

Appears he only joined the community early Dec and his first post is below.

DEV Community is a community of 2,548,477 amazing developers​

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

Cybersecurity Challenges in AI-Powered Medical Devices (SaMD):​


Excerpt:

Beyond Traditional Boundaries - A New Frontier of Digital Healthcare Protection

The Emerging Threat Landscape

In the converging worlds of artificial intelligence and medical technology, we're witnessing an unprecedented cybersecurity challenge that transcends traditional security paradigms.

AI-powered medical devices are no longer simple data collectors—they've become intelligent, autonomous decision-making systems with potential vulnerabilities that extend far beyond conventional cybersecurity frameworks.

3. Neuromorphic Security Modeling
Develop security architectures inspired by human neural networks:


  • Contextual Anomaly Detection: Design systems that understand not just statistical anomalies, but contextual irregularities in device behavior.
  • Predictive Threat Modeling: Use advanced machine learning to anticipate potential security breaches before they occur.
Neuromorphic Security Modeling: Advanced Approaches

Contextual AI Security Frameworks Tools:


  • IBM's Neuromorphic Computing Research Kit
  • Intel's Loihi Neuromorphic Research Community Edition
  • BrainChip Akida Neuromorphic Processor
Contextual Anomaly Detection Prototype:

There is "code" included in this section.

I wouldn't worry too much, the guy seems like a bit of a nut job..
Cooks his computer chips in the oven and talks to his dogs?..

Seriously powerful bit of kit there, but totally different competitive environment, I think..

At least that particular unit, isn't going to fit well in a hearing aid or smart ring etc 😛..

Even in robotics, humanoid or otherwise, Neuromorphic is a far better direction, in my humble opinion.



For example, Clone Alpha is following a much more bio-inspired direction, with full skeletal structure, replicated hydraulic muscles (powered by an electric "heart" pump) and nervous system..



When I first saw this, I thought "yeah that's a few years off"

But the first 279 are up for pre-order.

Everything is moving so quickly, this looks a lot more like Musk's original vision for Optimus and that was people dancing around in leotards..

I bet the lucky Master student that gets picked for this position will be working with Akida! 🤗

Airbus Ottobrunn (just outside of Munich) is one of the consortium partners of the Airbus NEURAVIS proposal (the others being Airbus Toulouse, BrainChip, Frontgrade Gaisler & Neurobus) which won the ESA ITT “Evaluation of Neuromorphic Computing Technologies for Very Low Power AI/ML Applications in Space” earlier this year (see my post below):
