Neural system design with the integrated neurocomputing architecture
P. Mukai, M. Busa, Peter T. Kazlas · 2002
Design and implementation issues of high-performance VLSI systems in the form of deployable neural networks for pattern recognition applications are addressed, in particular the integrated neurocomputing architecture (INCA), which was developed with a complete system approach involving the integration of custom analog IC design, digital and analog board-level design, neural network development software, and application-specific hardware and software elements, is considered. The design methodology is discussed to demonstrate the capability of INCA as a usable neuroprocessing system. It serves as an example of a system that highlights many design automation issues for future mixed-signal, highly integrated systems.>
