Abstract :
In this paper, we present experimental results from the critical circuit structures on the Edinburgh Classical Conditioning Pulsed Neural Chip. Being inspired from psycho-biological modelling, this chip successfully implements a continuous time version of a differential Hebbian learning algorithm for pulsed neural systems with non-linear synapses. The chip can solve simple classical conditioning tasks and the working chip verifies the design methodologies put forward in previous papers
