  1. Embedded  smart  vision  system  based  on   CogniMem neural  processor  :     application  to  person  detection M.Paindavoine1,2, E.Boattlander2, G.Sauvage2, G.Camenen2, O.Brousse1,2 1: LEAD Universite de Bourgogne & CNRS (Dijon, France) 2: GlobalSensing Technologies (Dijon, France) HIPEAC_NIAC Berlin 2013

  2. I- Introduction: Human detection from natural scenes with artificial vision systems needs background elimination Simple differences betwen current image and background reference image are too noise sensitive Some robust algorithms have been introduced like Gaussian Mixture Model (Stauffer & Grimson, IEEE CVPR 1999) but calculation complexity is high An optimization of performance vs complexity consists in bio-inspired human performances in words of detection and recognition HIPEAC_NIAC Berlin 2013

  3. Simple Tasks with Human Brain vs Von Neuman Computer (like PC): - Calculate in less than one second (398387.86 x 498.07=?) - But regognize in less than one second this image: Artificial vision model proposal for embedded systems: • Arithmetic calculations used in image filtering for example: • -> Von Neuman (or Harvard) architectures • Object recognition from natural images: • ->Bio-inspired Human intelligence: Artificial Intelligence on Silicon HIPEAC_NIAC Berlin 2013

  9. Prototype A network of neurons in parallel Internal neuron architecture A neuron is a reactive memory which can autonomously evaluate the distance between an incoming vector and a reference vector stored in its memory. If this distance falls within its current influence field, it returns a positive classification. Distance Influence Field Context Category • The true significance of a neuron is its arrangement into a parallel network which allows • To learn and recognize a vector in a constant amount of time independent from the number of neurons • To add neurons at will to the network All neurons process the input vector in parallel Neuron #1 Neuron #2 Neuron #n Best match of all neurons, 36 clock cycles later HIPEAC_NIAC Berlin 2013

  10. An adaptive model generator • Learn by examples (supervised or unsupervised) • Map decision spaces by aggregate instead of hyper planes • Cope with non-linear, convex, disjoints and embedded categories • - Multiple space generation using different contexts • Save and restore the contents of the neurons • Can append more training at any time Learning = Building a “decision spaces” by learning examples A A B A or B or C C HIPEAC_NIAC Berlin 2013

  11. Identified (A) Uncertain (A, B or C) Unknown A A B C A high-performance classifier • Global response readout: • positively identified • identified with uncertainty • unknown • Detailed response of all the firing neurons • category and confidence level (or distance) • retrieved per decreasing confidence Recognition = where does the sample fall in the decision space?

  12. Recognition Time CPU or DSP CogniMem Size of knowledge High speed performance • Constant recognition time independent from the number of neurons in use • 9.47 usec to broadcast a pattern of 256 bytes to all neurons (@ 27Mhz) • 1.3 µsec to read to the best match processor neuron1 neuron2 neuron3 … neuron n HIPEAC_NIAC Berlin 2013
