Abrégé

Systems and methods for a sensor hub system that accurately and efficiently performs sensory analysis across a broad range of users and sensors and is capable of recognizing a broad set of sensor-based events of interest using flexible and modifiable neural networks are disclosed. The disclosed solution consumes orders of magnitude less power than typical application processors. In one embodiment, a scalable sensor hub system for detecting sensory events of interest comprises a neural network and one or more sensors. The neural network comprises one or more dedicated low-power processors and memory storing one or more neural network programs for execution by the one or more processors. The output of the one or more sensors is converted into a spike signal, and the neural network takes the spike signal as input and determines whether a sensory event of interest has occurred.

Abrégé

Systems and methods achieving scalable and efficient connectivity in neural algorithms by re-calculating network connectivity in an event-driven way are disclosed. The disclosed solution eliminates the storing of a massive amount of data relating to connectivity used in traditional methods. In one embodiment, a deterministic LFSR is used to quickly, efficiently, and cheaply re-calculate these connections on the fly. An alternative embodiment caches some or all of the LFSR seed values in memory to avoid sequencing the LFSR through all states needed to compute targets for a particular active neuron. Additionally, connections may be calculated in a way that generates neural networks with connections that are uniformly or normally (Gaussian) distributed.

Abrégé

A learn-by-example (LBE) system comprises, among other things, a first component which provides examples of data of interest (Supply Component/Example Data Component); a second component capable of selecting and configuring a classification algorithm to classify the collected data (Configuration Component), and a third component capable of using the configured classification algorithm to classify new data from the sensors (Recognition Component). Together, these components detect sensory events of interest utilizing an LBE methodology, thereby enabling continuous sensory processing without the need for specialized sensor processing expertise and specialized domain-specific algorithm development.
