Learning to See via Epiretinal Implant Stimulation in silico with Model-Based Deep Reinforcement Learning
Jacob Lavoie, Marwan Besrour, William Lemaire +3
Objective: Diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa cause the degradation of the photoreceptor layer. One approach to restore vision is to electri…
Excitatory/Inhibitory Balance Emerges as a Key Factor for RBN Performance, Overriding Attractor Dynamics
Emmanuel Calvet, Jean Rouat, Bertrand Reulet
Reservoir computing provides a time and cost-efficient alternative to traditional learning methods.Critical regimes, known as the "edge of chaos," have been found to optimize compu…
Stabilizing RNN Gradients through Pre-training
Luca Herranz-Celotti, Jean Rouat
Numerous theories of learning propose to prevent the gradient from exponential growth with depth or time, to stabilize and improve training. Typically, these analyses are conducted…
Evaluation of short range depth sonifications for visual-to-auditory sensory substitution
Louis Commère, Jean Rouat
Visual to auditory sensory substitution devices convert visual information into sound and can provide valuable assistance for blind people. Recent iterations of these devices rely…
Efficient spike encoding algorithms for neuromorphic speech recognition
Sidi Yaya Arnaud Yarga, Jean Rouat, Sean U. N. Wood
Spiking Neural Networks (SNN) are known to be very effective for neuromorphic processor implementations, achieving orders of magnitude improvements in energy efficiency and computa…
Sonified distance in sensory substitution does not always improve localization: comparison with a 2D and 3D handheld device
Louis Commère, Jean Rouat
Early visual to auditory substitution devices encode 2D monocular images into sounds while more recent devices use distance information from 3D sensors. This study assesses whether…
