Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) is a computational model of the neocortex that is capable of online learning to predict and detect anomalies from continuous data streams. To make HTM also available on power-constrained robot systems, we investigate the feasibility of implementing the model on SpiNNaker, a fully programmable energy-efficient neuromorphic many core system. Our contribution is twofold:...
Recent developments in centralized ICT architectures have realized the abstraction of hardware and communications functionality into software within for of highly assisted and autonomous vehicles. This development requires a data-centric approach to the integration and fusion of sensory information within the vehicle. We address this requirement through utilizing a hierarchical framework of intelligent...
In this work, we focus on the improvement of human-machine interaction inside the automobile by reducing the complexity of involved context management. A contribution in the form of a context processing engine named probabilistic application layer (PAL) is provided, which addresses following issues: Guarantees for time bounds in performing safety-critical exact inference, standardized application...
Disruptive technologies have the potential to change markets dramatically. The switch from internal combustion engines to electrical engines is such a change. But electric engines for vehicles are only the catalyst for the real change. Most significantly, the architecture and role of information and communication technology (ICT) will change for the vehicle of the future. This paper discusses the...
Time-Triggered Network-on-Chip (TTNoC) is a networking concept aiming at providing both predictable and high-throughput communication for modern multiprocessor systems. The message scheduling is one of the major design challenges in TTNoC-based systems. The designers not only need to allocate time slots but also have to assign communication routes for all messages. This paper tackles the TTNoC scheduling...
Energy-efficiency is becoming one of the most critical issues in embedded system design. In Network-on-Chip (NoC) based heterogeneous Multiprocessor Systems, the energy consumption is influenced dramatically by task allocation schemes. Although various approaches are proposed to allocate tasks in an energy-efficient way, existing work does not well explore the tradeoff between the two major power...
In this paper, we introduce an intrinsically parallel framework striving for increased flexibility in development of robotic, computer vision, and machine intelligence applications. The primary goal is to provide a sound and easy-to-use, but yet efficient base architecture for complex sensor-based robotic systems with focus on industrial scenarios. The framework combines promising ideas of recent...
Both Robots and Personal Computers established new markets about 30 years ago and were enabling factors in Automation and Information Technology. However, while you can see Personal Computers in almost every home nowadays, the domain of Robots in general still is mostly restricted to industrial automation. Due to the physical impact of robots, a safe design is essential, which most robots still lack...
