Hardware Implementation of Deep Network Accelerators Towards Healthcare and Biomedical Applications
Open accessAbstract
The advent of dedicated Deep Learning (DL) accelerators and neuromorphic processors has brought on new opportunities for applying both Deep and Spiking Neural Network (SNN) algorithms to healthcare and biomedical applications at the edge. This can facilitate the advancement of medical Internet of Things (IoT) systems and Point of Care (PoC) devices. In this paper, we provide a tutorial describing how various technologies including emerging memristive devices, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), and Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) can be used to develop efficient DL accelerators to solve a wide variety of diagnostic, pattern recognition, and signal processing problems in healthcare. Furthermore, we explore how spiking neuromorphic processors can complement their DL counterparts for processing biomedical signals. The tutorial is augmented with case studies of the vast literature on neural network and neuromorphic hardware as applied to the healthcare domain. We benchmark various hardware platforms by performing a sensor fusion signal processing task combining electromyography (EMG) signals with computer vision. Comparisons are made between dedicated neuromorphic processors and embedded AI accelerators in terms of inference latency and energy. Finally, we provide our analysis of the field and share a perspective on the advantages, disadvantages, challenges, and opportunities that various accelerators and neuromorphic processors introduce to healthcare and biomedical domains.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
