Radiation Resilience: Taming the Cosmic Storm with Brain-Inspired Computers: An Exploratory Research to Characterize and Mitigate Radiation Effects in Mixed-Signal Neuromorphic Processors for Space Applications

The number of satellites in orbit is increasing at an accelerating pace. One major issue that currently hinders the range of satellite applications is data analysis. Most data is transmitted back to ground stations for analysis resulting in bandwidth-related issues, or the processing is performed on board, necessitating large computational power...

Neuromorphic Computing of Event-Based Data for High-Speed Vision-Based Navigation

The combination of Spiking Neural Networks and event-based vision sensors holds the potential of highly efficient and high-bandwidth optical flow estimation. This thesis presents, to the best of the author’s knowledge, the first hierarchical spiking architecture in which motion (direction and speed) selectivity emerges in a biologically...
