Three digital artificial neural network processors suitable for the emulation of fully interconnected neural networks are proposed. The processors use N(2) multipliers and an arrangement of tree structures that provide the communication and accumulation function either individually or in a combined manner using communicating adder trees. The performance for the emulation of an N-neuron network for all processors is achieved in 2log(2)N+C time units, where C is a constant equal to the multiplication, neuron activation, and internal fixed delays. The feasibility and characteristics of the proposed configurations to emulate single and/or multiple neural networks simultaneously are discussed, and a comparison with recently proposed neurocomputer architectures is reported.

Brain-computer interface (BCI) has been widely used in human-computer interaction. The introduction of artificial intelligence has further improved the performance of BCI system. In recent years, the development of BCI has gradually shifted from personal computers to embedded devices, which boasts lower power consumption and smaller size, but at the cost of limited device resources and computing speed, thus can hardly improve the support of complex algorithms.

Neuromorphic engineering has emerged as a promising avenue for developing brain-inspired computational systems. However, conventional electronic AI-based processors often encounter challenges related to processing speed and thermal dissipation. As an alternative, optical implementations of such processors have been proposed, capitalizing on the intrinsic information-processing capabilities of light.

Recently, distributed systems have become the backbone of technological development. It serves as the foundation for new trends technologies such as blockchain, the internet of things and others. A distributed system provides fault tolerance and decentralization, where a fault in any component does not result in a whole system failure.

Remote photo-plethysmography (rPPG) is a useful camera-based health motioning method that can measure the heart rhythm from facial videos. Many well-established deep learning models can provide highly accurate and robust results in measuring heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV). However, these methods are unable to effectively eliminate illumination variation and motion artifact disturbances, and their substantial computational resource requirements significantly limit their applicability in real-world scenarios.

The accuracy of the Pavlov ratio measurement is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of cervical spinal stenosis. Manual measurement is influenced by observer variability, accompanied by its inefficiency, which affects clinical evaluation.
