论文摘要
该文档的重点是在与时间瞬变通信和计算的技术中实施的计算系统。尽管一般描述了尖峰神经网络的实施是主要的兴趣。作为背景，总结了用于构建时间网络的代数。然后，描述了由同步段组成的系统组织。这些细分市场在内部提供，并在各个细分之间进行反馈。同步时钟在每个计算步骤或周期的末尾重置网络段。以其基本形式，同步时钟仅执行重置函数。在神经网络的背景下，这满足了生物学的合理性。但是，功能完整性受到限制。通过允许将同步时钟用作作为时间参考值的附加函数输入来消除此限制。
This document is focused on computing systems implemented in technologies that communicate and compute with temporal transients. Although described in general terms, implementations of spiking neural networks are of primary interest. As background, an algebra for constructing temporal networks is summarized. Then, a system organization consisting of synchronized segments is described. The segments are feedforward internally with feedback between segments. A synchronizing clock resets network segments at the end of each computation step or cycle. In its basic form, the synchronizing clock merely performs a reset function. In the context of neural networks, this satisfies biological plausibility. However, functional completeness is restricted. This restriction is removed by allowing use of the synchronizing clock as an additional function input that acts as a temporal reference value.
