Abstract
Current neuromorphic systems often may be difficult to use and costly to deploy. There exists a need for a simple yet flexible neuromorphic development platform which can allow researchers to quickly prototype ideas and applications. Caspian offers a high-level API along with a fast spiking simulator to enable the rapid development of neuromorphic solutions. It further offers an FPGA architecture that allows for simplified deployment -- particularly in SWaP (size, weight, and power) constrained environments. Leveraging both software and hardware, Caspian aims to accelerate development and deployment while enabling new researchers to quickly become productive with a spiking neural network system.
