Abstract :
In this paper we present an original embedded system, named MAHARADJA, based on the association of a microcontroller and a dedicated post potential synaptic computation unit circuit. This system performs real time simulation of RBF neural network with the Mahalanobis distance with low power dissipation. We compare this system with general purpose microprocessors and with specialized and dedicated neurocomputers. We show that this system is a good paradigm compared to the other systems
