Neuromorphic computing is a potential alternative to conventional von Neumann computers for specialised sensory-processing or classification applications. Neuromorphic systems replicate the biophysics of neurobiological networks by replicating the information processing mechanism of biological neurons and synapses, resulting in high connection and parallelism on a smaller footprint. These characteristics contribute to the implementation of neuromorphic architectures in hardware development for time series data classification and recognition. However, hardware implementation of neural network suffers from resource constraints because to the typically large number of nodes utilised in RC networks and the high chip area required for each processing node. Moreover, a high number of features in time series data classification introduces computational burden and leads to excessive hardware calculation overhead. In this work, a reservoir computing based stochastic spiking neural network (SSNN) has been proposed for time series data processing and classification, enabling a more efficient hardware implementation with low computation overhead caused by minimum extracted features. The proposed neuron reservoir is implemented in two applications including ventricular heartbeat classification and human activity recognition (HAR). The 43 recordings of Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals that included both normal and arrhythmic beats from MIT-BIH arrhythmia database obtained from Physio-Net were used in this work for heartbeat classification.
