![]() ![]() ![]() "We have not built a biologically realistic simulation of the complete human brain. The research is IBM's effort towards DARPA's Systems of Neuromorphic Adaptive Plastic Scalable Electronics (SyNAPSE)project. By comparison the human brain is estimated to have between 0.6 to 2.4 x 10 14 synapses. The whole thing was running only 1500 times slower than the real hardware would have. The system simulated 2 billion neurosynaptic cores, which contained the 530 billion neurons and the 10 14synapses. The paper detailing the system involved "TrueNorth" is simply titled 10 14 which is the number of synapses simulated. The simulation of TrueNorth was run on the IBM Blue Gene/Q super computer at Lawrence Livermore Labs. IBM Research has broken new ground with a simulation of 530 billion neurons in a network modeled on the connectivity of a monkey brain - almost enough for a complete working brain.
