Electronic Engineer turned Neuroscientist turned Neuromorphic low-power processing evangelist. No war, no hate. Maybe look out for people who have less… https://dylan-muir.com

A photo of Elephant Rocks, in south Western Australia. Australian scrub, winding down to a small cove with enormous granite boulders that look like a herd of elephants. Turquoise sea in the distance.
A table comparing accuracy, resource requirements and power consumption for several sound source estimation techniques. The table shows that the novel technique from Haghighatshoar and Muir achieves similar accuracy to standard DSP-based approaches, with a fraction of the resource and power requirements. The table also shows that the novel technique achieves state of the art accuracy for spiking neural network approaches.
Scientific plot showing beam patterns for a circular microphone array, using a novel beamforming technique introduced in a preprint by Haghighatshoar and Muir. Beam patterns are shown for both narrowband and wideband signals, and the plot shows that both signal bandwidths result in similar beam patterns using the novel beamforming technique.
Scientific plot showing the Hilbert analytic signal and an estimation of the quadrature component. From a preprint by Haghighatshoar and Muir.

AI generated image. A photo inside a laboratory, showing a neuromorphic computer connected to several measurement devices. The devices are measuring the power consumption and speed of the neuromorphic computer. There are no people in the image. The laboratory has a rustic feel.
