SUMMARY:Emerging Technologies for Energy-efficient Neuromorphic Edge Compu
 ting
DESCRIPTION:Special Session (Research)\n\nThis special session aims to dis
 cuss various approaches to neuromorphic computing for edge AI applications
  focusing on emerging technologies, novel architectures and sensing modali
 ties to enhance perception. We will have an introductory tutorial dedicate
 d to current strategies to achieve low-power computing at the Edge based o
 n CMOS and post-CMOS technologies. Then, we will focus on limitations of c
 urrent solutions and introduce four different strategies to overcome such l
 imitations in the remaining talks. These talks are related to four Europea
 n projects funded under the same call entitled “Ultra-low-power,\nsecure p
 rocessors for edge computing”. These projects aiming at reducing by two or
 ders of magnitude current energy consumptions and with budgets between 8 a
 nd 10 million Euros gather a large number of academic and industrial key E
 uropean players on computing technologies. The second talk discusses desig
 n strategies in the CONVOLVE project for SoCs dedicated to edge AI applica
 tions by taking a holistic approach to design space exploration. Trade-offs
  tackling the whole tool chain will be presented to achieve substantial im
 provements in energy consumptions. The third talk discusses the neuromorph
 ic approach taken in the NimbleAI project combining a vertebrate eye-inspi
 red foveated DVS chip\ncoupled with an insect eye-inspired microlens array
  to sense and process light fields at different resolutions with minimal la
 tency and energy consumption. The final talk discusses the development of 
 neuromorphic accelerators based on integrated photonics in the NEUROPULS p
 roject. Photonic architectures leveraging phase-change and III-V materials
  for neuromorphic computing will be presented. We expect this session to f
 oster opportunities to link these initiatives at the EU level with similar
  initiatives worldwide.\n\nInvited: Neuromorphic Vision Modalities in the
