IEEE Computer Cover Feature — TrueNorth: Accelerating From Zero to 64 Million Neurons in 10 Years

May 14, 2019 By dmodha

May 2019 issue of IEEE Computer Magazine’s Cover Features highlights an article summarizing ten years of innovation from IBM Research.

Abstract: IBM’s brain-inspired processor is a massively parallel neural network inference engine containing 1 million spiking neurons and 256 million low-precision synapses. Now, after a decade of fundamental research spanning neuroscience, architecture, chips, systems, software, and algorithms, IBM has delivered the largest neurosynaptic computer ever built.
