Before revision: A growing number of neuromorphic spiking neural network processors that emulate biological neural networks create an imminent need for methods and tools to enable them to solve real-world signal processing problems.
After revision: Spiking neural networks are nature's versatile solution to fault-tolerant and energy efficient signal processing. To translate these benefits into hardware, a growing number of neuromorphic spiking neural network processors that emulate biological neural networks create an imminent need for methods and tools to enable them to solve real-world signal processing problems.
