About and contact

Axon SDK is a neuromorphic framework to build spiking neural networks (SNN) for general-purpose computation.

Axon SDK was build by Neucom. At Neucom, we’re building a general-purpose neuromorphic processor that executes deterministic computation tasks with minimal energy consumption.

Axon SDK is based on the theoretical work presented in STICK and it expands it in several directions:

• Axon SDK provides a library of spiking computation kernels that can be combined to achieve complex computations.
• Axon SDK extends STICK with an arbitrary computation range, beyond the original constrain to scalars in the [0, 1] range.
• Axon SDK provides new computation primitives, such as a Modulo operation, Scalar multiplication and Division.
• Axon SDK provides a compiler that translates a user-defined algorithms using Python syntax syntax, into their spiking version.
• Axon SDK includes a Simulator to emulate the operation of the constructed SNN.

Axon SDK is open-sourced under a GPLv3 license, preventing its inclusion in closed-source projects.

Axon SDK was developed by Iñigo Lara, Francesco Sheiban and Dmitri Lyalikov and belongs to Neucom APS. Neucom APS is based in Copenhagen, Denmark.
