- Abstract
Electronic noses recognize odors using sensor arrays, and usually face difficulties for odor complicacy, while animals have their own biological sensory capabilities for various types of odors. By implanting electrodes into the olfactory bulb of mammalian animals, odors may be recognized by decoding the recorded neural signals, in order to construct a bioelectronic nose. This paper proposes a spiking neural network (SNN)-based odor recognition method from spike trains recorded by the implanted electrode array. The proposed SNN-based approach exploits rich timing information well in precise time points of spikes. To alleviate the overfitting problem, we design a new SNN learning method with a voltage-based regulation strategy. Experiments are carried out using spike train signals recorded from the main olfactory bulb in rats. Results show that our SNN-based approach achieves the state-of-the-art performance, compared with other methods. With the proposed voltage regulation strategy, it achieves about 15% improvement compared with a classical SNN model.
