Algorithm For 3D-Chemotaxis Using Spiking Neural Network
In this work, we aim to devise an end-to-end spiking implementation for contour tracking in 3D media inspired by chemotaxis, where the worm reaches the region which has the given set concentration. For a planer medium, efficient contour tracking algorithms have already been devised, but a new degree of freedom has quite a few challenges. Here we devise an algorithm based on klinokinesis - where the motion of the worm is in response to the stimuli but not proportional to it. Thus the path followed is not the shortest, but we can track the set concentration successfully. We are using simple LIF neurons for the neural network implementation, considering the feasibility of its implementation in the neuromorphic computing hardware.
