Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, there is provided a method for reducing power consumption in an artificial neural network, the method comprising: receiving an input signal; modulating a sampling frequency of an artificial neuron based on the input signal; and forwarding the input signal or a further input signal obtained from the input signal to the artificial neuron at the sampling frequency, wherein said modulating the sampling frequency comprises increasing the sampling frequency with an increased input signal and reducing the sampling frequency with a decreased input signal.
