Demonstrating significant energy savings using neuromorphic hardware

For the first time TU Graz's Institute of Theoretical Computer Science and Intel Labs demonstrated experimentally that a large neural network can process sequences such as sentences while consuming four to sixteen times less energy while running on neuromorphic hardware than non-neuromorphic hardware. The new research based on Intel Labs' Loihi neuromorphic research chip that draws on insights from neuroscience to create chips that function similar to those in the biological brain.
