Generally, computer-science-oriented artificial neural networks (ANNs) and neuroscience-oriented spiking (SNNs) are two main approaches to develop brain-spired non von Neumann computing systems. The goal of exploring complex intelligence (AI) systems demands general neuromorphic hardware platforms compatible with both them. However, as a result the obvious differences in their fundamental mathematical expression coding scheme, many or deep network (DNN) accelerators accommodate only one This...
