Abstract
A neural network conversion method and a recognition apparatus that implements the method are provided. A method of converting an analog neural network (ANN) to a spiking neural network (SNN) normalizes first parameters of a trained ANN based on a reference activation that is set to be proximate to a maximum activation of artificial neurons included in the ANN, and determines second parameters of an SNN based on the normalized first parameters.
