Thank you very much @DiogeneseHi Baisyet,
I think that Jason has/had a narrow view of what constitutes neuromorphic, being analog neurons.
It is true that analog neurons more closely resemble biological neurons by adding actual voltages and firing when a threshold voltage value is reached. A leaky-integrate-and-fire (LIF) neuron can be represented by a capacitor in parallel with a resistor. As the capacitor is charged by input current spikes from other neurons, it begins to discharge (leak) through the resistor, so the rate of incoming spikes is important. If the rate is too low, the capacitor voltage will drop faster than it is built up by the spikes and the neuron will not reach the threshold.
Akida is designed to produce a digital imitation of the function of biological neurons. Akida's neurons "count" digital bits and fire when the count reaches a numerical threshold. The digital output of Akida is equivalent to the result of passing the output of an analog neuron through an analog-to-digital converter, which is a necessary step with an analog neuron if its output is to be useful in a CPU/GPU. Akida uses a time window to replicate the leak by only counting the most recent block of N spikes.
Akida is suitable for edge devices because of its speed of response (low latency) and its low power requirements which make it ideal for battery operated devices.
Thanks. I have deleted my post so as not to confuse anyone over the figures.Th
My reading is that we, as the contractor to AFRL, pay the sub-contractor $800k.
I don't think the actual amount we get is as important as the recognition which this provides in validating our tech, especially TENNs.
Im not so sure..Thanks. I have deleted my post so as not to confuse anyone over the figures.
Hi @Fullmoonfever,
Too late… I was adding just 6 million on top of your 4 to make it round and smooth… thank you for that bravo…… NOW GO AND RUN!!!Thanks. I have deleted my post so as not to confuse anyone over the figures.
Where did you see: The contract also involves BrainChip partnering with a yet-unnamed aerospace and defence giant?Sean Hehir, CEO of BrainChip, highlighted the importance of this work, stating:
"This partnership showcases how neuromorphic computing can achieve significant benefits of low-power, high-performance compute in the most mission-critical use cases."
The contract also involves BrainChip partnering with a yet-unnamed aerospace and defence giant. Milestone payments will begin in January 2025, providing much-needed revenue consistency over the next year.
Well, I found the link myself and this guy does say: Quote: The contract also involves BrainChip partnering with a yet-unnamed aerospace and defence giant.

Link, please.
