Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for creating tags (static or dynamic) for input/output classes of a neural network model using supervised learning. The method includes augmenting a neural network model with a plurality of neurons and training the augmented network using spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) to determine one or more tags.
Abstract:
Techniques for enhanced backhaul flow control are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a backhaul control system is described that comprises a base station controller (BSC), a backhaul network, and a base transceiver station (BTS). Each is responsive to data and messaging transmitted and received. In one aspect, the BTS includes a queue and a controller. The amount of data in a queue is adjusted by a controller based upon calculating a target queue size value. The controller non-uniformly adjusts the amount of data in a queue based upon a target queue size value which is based upon communication system parameters. The target queue size and amount of data in a queue is adjusted so as to reduce buffer underrun, decrease system latency, and increase communication system throughput.
Abstract:
A method for synchronizing a wireless communication system is disclosed. A silence duration for a base station is determined based on the time required for a neighbor base station to obtain or maintain synchronization. All transmissions from the base station are ceased for the silence duration. Multiple base stations level may cease transmissions at the same time, thus mitigating interference.
Abstract:
A method for generating a histogram in a spiking neural network includes counting spikes associated with a latency encoded representation of an object. The method also includes generating the histogram based on the spike count.
Abstract:
A method for pattern recognition in a spiking neural network robust to initial network conditions includes creating a set of diverse neurons in a first layer to increase a diversity in a set of spike timings. An input corresponding to a pattern plus noise is presented at an input layer and represented as spikes. The spikes are received at the first layer and spikes are produced at the first layer based on the received spikes. The method also includes updating a weight of each synapse between an input layer neuron and an output layer neuron based on a spike timing difference between a spike at the input layer neuron and a spike at the output layer neuron. Further, the method includes classifying a spike pattern represented by a set of inter-spike intervals, regardless of noise in the spike pattern.
