ABSTRACT:

The increasing number of nodes in a sensor network imposes significant
power burden on the network. This burden is primarily associated with
transmission and processing of the vast amount of data that the network
generates. An approach to reduce the data volume, and thus the total power
consumption, is adding intelligence to the nodes. In the 1st half of the
talk, energy-efficient computation electronics using physical principles to
process continuous time signals, will be presented in the context of
biosignal processing and body-sensor-networks. Suffering from the von
Neumann- (memory-) bottleneck, existing digital processors do not offer the
most power- or speed- efficient solutions for machine learning
applications. In the 2nd half of the talk, new hardware accelerator
approaches will be outlined, which will be followed by a discussion on
neuromorphic and analog/mixed-signal approaches.

Bio:

Hakan Töreyin is an assistant professor at the department of Electrical and
Computer Engineering at the San Diego State University. He received the
B.S. degree in electrical and electronics engineering from the Middle East
Technical University, Ankara, Turkey in 2007; the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in
electrical and computer engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology,
Atlanta, GA in 2008 and 2014, respectively. Dr. Töreyin was a Fulbright
Scholar during his M.S. studies. He received Chih Foundation research award
in 2012. He was the North America Geographic Finalist and awarded the third
price in the Student Paper Competition at the IEEE EMBC 2014. Dr. Töreyin
is an associate editor of IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in
Health and Medicine and IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and
Systems.
