This paper presents a reconfigurable and efficient two-dimensional (2-D) neuron model capable of extending to higher dimensions. The model is applied to the Izhikevich and FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron models as 2-D case studies and to the Hindmarsh-Rose model as a 3-D case study. Hardware synthesis and physical implementations show that the resulting circuits can reproduce neural dynamics with acceptable precision and considerably low hardware overhead compared to previously published piecewise linear models.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
