چکیده

Gas, oil and other pipelines need to be inspected for corrosion and other defects at regular intervals. For this application Pipetronix GmbH (PTX) Karlsruhe has developed a special ultrasonic based probe. Based on the recorded wall thicknesses of this so called pipe pig the Research center for computer science (FZI) has developed in cooperation with PTX an automatic inspection system called NeuroPipe. NeuroPipe has the task to detect defects like metal loss. The kernel of this inspection tool is a neural classiier which was trained using manually collected defect examples. The following paper focus on the aspects of successfull use of learning methods in an industrial application.

NeuroPipe-Chip: A digital neuro-processor for spiking neural networks

Computing complex spiking artificial neural networks (SANNs) on conventional hardware platforms is far from reaching real-time requirements. Therefore we propose a neuro-processor, called NeuroPipe-Chip, as part of an accelerator board. In this paper, we introduce two new concepts on chip-level to speed up the computation of SANNs. These concepts are implemented in a prototype of the NeuroPipe-...
