Simulation of memristive crossbar arrays for seizure detection and prediction using parallel Convolutional Neural Networks

For epileptic seizure detection and prediction, to address the computational bottleneck of the von Neumann architecture, we develop an in-memory memristive crossbar-based accelerator simulator. The simulator software is composed of a Python-based neural network training component and a MATLAB-based memristive crossbar array component. The software provides a baseline network for developing deep learning-based signal processing tasks, as well as a platform to investigate the impact of weight mapping schemes and device and peripheral circuitry non-idealities.
