Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provides a system and a method for connecting two or more parts of a distributed and spatio-temporal spiking neural network by a means of communication, such as the Internet, used for recognizing and identifying acoustic signals using acoustic signature recognition by means of a spatio-temporal neural network. The first artificial intelligent device identifies features in a series of spatio-temporal pulse streams received from an artificial cochlear, and learns to respond to the pulse streams. The features of the pulse stream identifying an event learned by the first artificial intelligent device are transmitted to the remote artificial intelligent device over a communication protocol via a Series Address Event Representation bus, where the remote artificial intelligent device learns to respond. Further, a computing device may be connected to the remote artificial intelligent device for analyzing and controlling one or more appliances from anywhere in the world.
