Spiking Neural Networks for Energy-Efficient Acoustic Emission-Based Monitoring by Federica Zonzini, Wenliang Xiang, Luca de Marchi

“…Therefore, we aim at combining the superior performances in ToA identification enabled by the WT operator with the unique energy saving disclosed by spiking hardware and software. Experimental tests executed on a metallic plate structure demonstrated that WT combined with SNN can achieve high precision (median values less than 5 cm) in ToA estimation and AE source localization even in the presence of relevant noise (signal-to-noise ratio down to 2 dB), while its deployment on dedicated neuromorphic architectures can reduce by six orders of magnitude the power expenditure per inference when compared to standard convolutional architectures.…”
