- Abstract
Inspired by the human vision system, neuromorphic vision systems simulating the mechanism of signal processing in retina are extensively investigated. This paper describes a silicon neuronal network with bio-inspired structure detects the edge information in image. The digital spiking silicon neuron (DSSN) and silicon synapse models are used to reproduce the neuron, synapse and their dynamic behaviors. The biological receptive fields are realized by the combination of excitatory and inhibitory synapses. Our silicon neuronal network is optimized for the hardware implementation. It is expected to have low hardware consumption and high running speed. The simulation results show that edge detection is successful in our network.
