Real-time Neural Connectivity Inference with Presynaptic Spike-driven Spike Timing-Dependent Plasticity.

Brain-like artificial intelligence in electronics can be built efficiently by understanding the connectivity of neuronal circuitry. The concept of neural connectivity inference with a two-dimensional cross-bar structure memristor array is indicated in recent studies; however, large-scale implementation is challenging owing to device variations and the requirement of online parameter adaptation. This study proposes a neural connectivity inference method with one-dimensional spiking neurons using spike timing-dependent plasticity and presynaptic spike-driven spike timing-dependent plasticity learning rules, designed for a large-scale neuromorphic system.
