Next, specific details of the invention are provided to give an understanding of the specific aspects. Finally, a number of example implementations are provided.
(1) Principal aspects
Various embodiments of the present invention include three "primary" aspects. As shown in fig. 1, the first major aspect is a low power neuromorphic system for authorized user detection. The system has three general components, namely an input processing component 102, a neuromorphic electronics component 104, and an output processing component 106. Both the input process 102 and the output process 106 components are implemented in software and/or hardware as a computer system that is owned or otherwise within a "client" system (such as memory and processing components within a mobile device, vehicle, etc.). Neuromorphic electronic component 104 is a component that is implemented in neuromorphic hardware and performs most of the computing processing. The second main aspect is a method typically in the form of software or other program that is run using a data processing system (computer) and neuromorphic hardware as described herein. The third main aspect is a computer program product. The computer program product generally represents computer readable instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium, such as an optical storage device, such as a Compact Disc (CD) or Digital Versatile Disc (DVD), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), or a magnetic storage device, such as a floppy disk or magnetic tape. Other non-limiting examples of computer readable media include hard disk, read Only Memory (ROM), and flash memory. These aspects will be described in more detail below.
Fig. 2 provides a block diagram depicting a non-limiting example of a computer system 200, which computer system 200 may be implemented to function as an input processing component and/or an output processing component (i.e., elements 102 and/or 106 of fig. 1). Such computer system 200 is configured to perform computations, processes, operations, and/or functions associated with programs or algorithms. In one aspect, certain processes and steps discussed herein are implemented as a series of instructions (e.g., software programs) residing in computer readable storage units and executed by one or more processors of computer system 200. When executed, the instructions cause the computer system 200 to perform certain actions and exhibit certain behavior as may be required to perform the processes described herein.
Computer system 200 may include an address/data bus 202 configured to transfer information. In addition, one or more data processing units, such as processor 204(s), are coupled to address/data bus 202. The processor 204 is configured to process information and instructions. In one aspect, the processor 204 is a microprocessor. Alternatively, the processor 204 may be a different type of processor, such as a parallel processor, an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a Programmable Logic Array (PLA), a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD), or a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA).
Computer system 200 is configured to utilize one or more data storage units. Computer system 200 may include a volatile memory unit 206 (e.g., random access memory ("RAM"), static RAM, dynamic RAM, etc.) coupled to address/data bus 202, wherein volatile memory unit 206 is configured to store information and instructions for processor 204. The computer system 200 may also include a nonvolatile memory unit 208 (e.g., read only memory ("ROM"), programmable ROM ("PROM"), erasable programmable ROM ("EPROM"), electrically erasable programmable ROM "EEPROM", flash memory, etc.) coupled to the address/data bus 202, wherein the nonvolatile memory unit 208 is configured to store static information and instructions for the processor 204. Alternatively, computer system 200 may execute instructions retrieved from an online data storage unit (such as in a "cloud" computing). In an aspect, computer system 200 may also include one or more interfaces coupled with address/data bus 202 (such as interface 210) or other interfaces as described in further detail below (e.g., a digital interface to neuromorphic electronic components). The one or more interfaces are configured to enable the computer system 200 to interface with other electronic devices and computer systems. The communication interface implemented by the one or more interfaces may include wired communication technology (e.g., serial cable, modem, network adapter, etc.) and/or wireless communication technology (e.g., wireless modem, wireless network adapter, etc.).
In one aspect, the computer system 200 may include an input device 212 coupled to the address/data bus 202, wherein the input device 212 is configured to communicate information and command selections to the processor 200. According to one aspect, the input device 212 is an alphanumeric input device (such as a keyboard) that may include alphanumeric and/or function keys. Alternatively, the input device 212 may be an input device other than an alphanumeric input device. In one aspect, the computer system 200 may include a cursor control device 214 coupled to the address/data bus 202, wherein the cursor control device 214 is configured to communicate user input information and/or command selections to the processor 200. In one aspect, the cursor control device 214 is implemented using a device such as a mouse, trackball, track pad, optical tracking device, or touch screen. Despite the foregoing, in one aspect, cursor control device 214 is directed and/or activated via input from input device 212 (such as in response to the use of special keys and key sequence commands associated with input device 212). In an alternative aspect, cursor control device 214 is configured to be guided or directed by voice commands.
In an aspect, computer system 200 may also include one or more optional computer usable data storage devices (such as storage device 216) coupled to address/data bus 202. Storage 216 is configured to store information and/or computer-executable instructions. In one aspect, the display device 218 is coupled to the address/data bus 202, wherein the display device 218 is configured to display video and/or graphics.
The computer system 200 presented herein is an example computing environment in accordance with an aspect. However, the non-limiting example of computer system 200 is not strictly limited to computer systems. For example, one aspect provides that computer system 200 represents one type of data processing analysis that may be used in accordance with aspects described herein. In addition, other computing systems may also be implemented. Indeed, the spirit and scope of the present technology is not limited to any single data processing environment. Thus, in one aspect, computer-executable instructions (such as program modules) executed by a computer are used to control or implement one or more operations of various aspects of the present technology. In one implementation, such program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, and/or data structures that are configured to perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Additionally, an aspect provides for implementing one or more aspects of the technology by utilizing one or more distributed computing environments, such as where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network, or such as where individual program modules are located in both local and remote computer storage media including memory-storage devices.
An exemplary diagram of a computer program product (i.e., a storage device) embodying an aspect of the invention is shown in fig. 3. The computer program product is shown as a floppy disk 300 or an optical disk 302 such as a CD or DVD. However, as previously mentioned, a computer program product generally represents computer readable instructions stored on any compatible non-transitory computer readable medium. The term "instruction" as used in relation to the present invention generally means a set of operations to be performed on a computer and may represent a fragment of an entire program or a single separable software module. Non-limiting examples of "instructions" include computer program code (source code or object code) and "hard-coded" electronics (i.e., computer operations encoded into a computer chip or otherwise in a neuromorphic hardware chip). The "instructions" are stored on any non-transitory computer readable medium, such as in the memory of a computer or in floppy disks, CD-ROMs, FPGAs, and flash drives.
(2) Introduction to the invention
A neuromorphic system for authorized user detection is described. More specifically and referring again to fig. 1, the system is a low power neuromorphic anomaly detection system 100, the low power neuromorphic anomaly detection system 100 identifying anomalies by detecting classification changes by way of significant differences between autonomous discovery sensor data 108. Once such a change is detected, the system generates an output signal 110 as appropriate for the particular application. The output signal 110 may trigger any number of subsequent actions, such as computer processing tasks, transmitting information related to anomalies or environmental changes, and storing data.
The neuromorphic electronic assembly 104 described herein may be implemented using any suitable neuromorphic hardware. In one aspect, neuromorphic electronic assembly 104 is implemented using neuromorphic hardware as described in U.S. patent No.8,977,578, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. The low power neuromorphic system of the present disclosure uses neuromorphic hardware (such as that described in the' 578 patent) along with additional data flow steps to generate the single output signal 110. In addition, the (tune)/configuration neuromorphic hardware is tuned in a specific manner to produce the desired result.
The system is unique in that it uses neuromorphic hardware (e.g., electronically implemented nonlinear liquid state machines) in conjunction with a software linear classifier to perform classification of sensor data (not just images). This combination of linear and nonlinear steps is unique and provides a significant improvement over the prior art. Neuromorphic techniques are scalable in scale and perform fast enough for complex problems. Furthermore, the system uses machine learning techniques to find differences in normal (nominal) and abnormal (off-nominal) conditions that can be practically applied to modern "client" systems that include electronic devices. Importantly, the system applies the linear classifier to a liquid state machine with a coupling of electronics and software as arranged in the figures filed herewith. In so doing, the system provides low power consumption handling of complex problems that occur on "client" systems, and enables the system to use fewer resources than in the prior art. This implementation allows very low power (less than 100 milliwatts) solutions to complex classification problems with fast response times (from a few milliseconds to a few seconds depending on the application) and small size and weight occupation.
Conventional automated detection systems (without neuromorphic hardware) utilize more energy to solve complex classification problems because their software runs on top of conventional electronics, which are not power efficient and do not parallelize the problem (and therefore run slower). Because the system of the present disclosure may perform activities when a trigger occurs, the client system does not have to perform those activities all the time. Thus, resources are substantially saved in terms of processor utilization, power consumption, data storage, and/or transmission bandwidth.
(3) Specific details of various embodiments
As shown in fig. 1, neuromorphic system 100 includes three serial components: an input processing component 102 (which receives sensor inputs 108), a neuromorphic electronics component 104, and an output processing component 106 (which generates output signals 110). The sensor input 108 includes various types of sensor data. Non-limiting examples of sources of sensor input 106 data include gyroscopes, accelerometers, altimeters, fuel levels, computer network services, etc. feeding the input processing component 102.
As described above, both the input process 102 and the output process 106 components are implemented in software and run on a conventional computer processor, and may be incorporated into any platform or client device that may receive streaming data. Examples of such client devices include mobile devices (e.g., telephones, ipads, etc.), autonomous vehicles, computers, or any other platform/client device that uses a processor and receives streaming data. Thus, while a particular client device is described below and illustrated as a mobile device such as a telephone, it should be understood that the invention is not intended to be limited thereto as all of the features described and illustrated may be incorporated into a variety of different applications.
Neuromorphic electronic component 104 is a component that is implemented in neuromorphic hardware and performs most of the computing processing. The neuromorphic electronic component 104 communicates with the other processing components 102 and 106 through a digital interface, such as a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). The output process 106 generates a binary output signal 110, the binary output signal 110 representing a normal state (e.g., authorized user) or an abnormal detection state (e.g., unauthorized user).
For further understanding, FIG. 4 provides a flow chart depicting the processing flow within the input processing 102 component. The input processing 102 component cleans up (i.e., normalizes 400) the sensor input 108 (i.e., streams the sensor data) and then maps the data to either the frequency domain (fd) or the time domain (td). All data (both td and fd) is then converted to a rate, and then to an input spike (in-spikes) 418, as described in further detail below.
The sensor input 108 data is normalized 400 by mapping the sensor specific range onto a zero to one scale to generate normalized time series data. In the frequency domain, the data is combined 402 by grouping the data types into a single scalar by time instance. Thereafter, packets of samples are collected 404 into a queue of sample size suitable for the application. The queue is converted 406 into discrete one-dimensional (1D) frequency domain data. The 1d frequency domain data is then modified 408 by multiplying the data by a window function, such as a Hamming window (Hamming window) or any other suitable window function, to reduce spectral leakage. Thereafter, the data is filtered 410 by rejecting frequency bins (frequency bins) outside the particular application frequency range, resulting in scaled windowed frequency bins. Non-limiting examples of such applications and frequency ranges include selecting a frequency between 0.5Hz and 10Hz in gait applications.
The input processing 102 component then scales 412 all values (both the normalized time series and the scaled windowed frequency interval) such that the values are limited to a maximum execution time to generate an input rate (in-rate). For example, the values are mapped linearly onto a range of spike rates (e.g., 0Hz to 200Hz, etc.). The input rate is mapped 414 to a distribution function (e.g., poisson probability distribution function (P)). Finally, input spikes 418 are generated 416 for the respective input pads of the neuromorphic electronic component 104 and the neuromorphic chip 821. The input spike 418 is a binary value for each input pad that is generated based on a comparison of a randomly generated number and a poisson probability distribution (P) value associated with the input rate value. The input peaks 418 are transmitted in a structure equivalent to a one-dimensional binary array. The maximum number of input peaks 418 is equal to the number of input pads present on a neuromorphic chip (i.e., a neuromorphic electronic component having an electronically-implemented liquid state machine with leakage integration firing (leaky integrate and fire) neurons, such as disclosed in U.S. patent No.8,977,578).
Fig. 5 provides a graphical representation of neuromorphic electronic component 104, and the path that an electronic signal may travel from input pad 500 to output pad 502 for a particular configuration. The bright square 504 represents an excitatory neuron and the dark square 506 represents an inhibitory neuron. The neuromorphic electronic component 104 receives the input spike 418 as an input and generates the output spike 508 as an output pad signal. The output spikes 508 are also sent in a structure equivalent to a one-dimensional binary array. The maximum number of output spikes 508 is equal to the number of output pads 502 present on the neuromorphic chip of the neuromorphic electronic assembly 104.
Fig. 6 illustrates the processing flow of the output processing 106 component. As shown in fig. 6, the output spikes 508 are smoothed 600 into a firing rate or output rate 602, which is a measure of the number of spikes per second. The velocity 602 is then applied to the linear classifier 604 to calculate 606 readings 608. The linear classifier 604 acts as a mapping from the rate 602 to the readings 608. Linear classifiers are generally understood by those skilled in the art (see, e.g., byA "linear classifier" is defined, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference). The linear classifier 604 is referred to because each reading 608 is a linear combination of the rates 602. Thus, this is a simple matrix multiplication operation in which the learning process is to determine a matrix by which the rate 602 is multiplied to obtain the reading 608. Desirably, discriminant training 603 must be performed on the linear classifier 604 before reliable anomaly signal generation can occur. Training 603 is based on supervised machine learning techniques using truth values 614. Each training stage is specific to one category at a time (there may be two or more categories). The differences between the categories (time and/or frequency domain) are the cause of anomalies or anomaly signals that will result. The frequency domain data is calculated in real time and used in a sliding window manner. The amount of frequency domain output data size is equal to the queue sample size.
The readings 608 are a plurality of floating point values corresponding to each category (2 or more). The readings are then filtered 610 to remove noise and an anomaly detection process 612 is performed, which produces a final output signal 110 (e.g., an anomaly signal specifying the presence of an authorized or unauthorized user). The anomaly detection process 612 identifies unauthorized or authorized users by signaling that a user change has occurred. When there is a user transition, the reading 608 signal becomes anomalous and the anomaly (in the reading 608 signal) is detected by the system.
(4) Example implementation
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the neuromorphic anomaly detection system of the present disclosure has many applications. For example, the system has been applied to detect user changes of a mobile device using biometric sensor data. In this implementation, the system is physically attached or embedded into the mobile device, where power usage by the mobile device is a focus of resource conservation. When an unauthorized user is detected, the mobile device locks the user from further use until an authorized user is detected (at which point the features/functions of the mobile device are unlocked and accessible). In addition, the system may be used in other applications where power consumption, feature size, and/or device accessibility are very limited. The system is also beneficial if it would be most beneficial if complex anomaly detection (for an off-board server/cloud solution) were performed directly on the client system.
As a specific example, the low power neuromorphic system of the present disclosure is applied in a hierarchical anomaly classification solution, such as in stage 1 block 700 of a hierarchical threat detection algorithm 702 (shown in fig. 7) further described in U.S. application No.15/338,228. In other words, the process described in U.S. application Ser. No.15/338,228 is modified to include the low power neuromorphic system of the present disclosure as stage 1 block 700. In this modified system, sensor data is generated from gyroscopes and accelerometers at a frequency of 50 Hz. The queue size is 200 samples. The application frequency range of interest is 0.3Hz to 20.0Hz. The upper limit of the rate is 200Hz. The execution time is in the range from 1.5ms to 5 ms. Effectively (active) about 25 input pads are used and effectively about 50 output pads are used. A Liquid State Machine (LSM) is configured such that 300 excitatory neurons and 25 inhibitory neurons are activated. The network map of neurons is connected at 1%. The system successfully distinguishes between multiple users operating a phone and issuing a phone alert when an unverified user walks with the phone.
Fig. 8 shows a schematic diagram of an example mobile device 800 (e.g., a phone) and neuromorphic-electronic component 104 (i.e., neuromorphic-chip 821 in communication with FPGA 823 or any other hardware or component required to allow neuromorphic chip 821 to operate). FPGA 823 is responsible for the configuration of neuromorphic chip 821 (e.g., a non-limiting example of which includes loading a particular network, such as the network described above with respect to fig. 5). Sub-components that have been developed and exist on mobile device 800 include a sensor data collection application 802 and a data resampler 804, the data resampler 804 converting all sensor streams from non-uniform sensor data 803 to uniform sampling rate (i.e., uniform data (binary) 805). The output of the resampler 804 goes directly to the local EWS application 806 and to the rate-based spike encoder 808 (which acts as the input processing component described above). It should be noted that a shielded cable 830 for transmission is illustrated; however, the present invention is not limited to such cables, as the particular cable 830 shown is provided as a non-limiting example of such transmission media.
The sensor signals encoded as input peaks 418 are sent to neuromorphic electronic component 104 via Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) connection 807 and corresponding line driver and receiver 827 on mobile device 800. The alert generated by neuromorphic electronics component 104 is encoded into output spike 518 and sent to mobile device 800 over SPI connection 807 (and corresponding line driver and receiver 827), where output spike 518 is decoded 809, then read by EWS application 806 (i.e., which acts as an output processing component as described above) to determine intent or classification, and then broadcast 813 to optional policy engine 815, which optional policy engine 815 maintains a policy regarding acceptable intent.
As a non-limiting example, if policy engine 815 specifies that the class of "unauthorized users" cannot be allowed to continue to use device 800, various protocols or actions 817 may be sent for mobile device 800 implementation, such as the following operations: all device accesses 819 are locked until an authorized user is detected (e.g., an authorized user enters an appropriate access code into the system). Other examples based on exception detection (i.e., unauthorized user access, etc.) include starting a new processing task or executing a new logical branch of executable code, sending information associated with the exception, and saving the information associated with the exception to a memory device. In some aspects, the activity is terminated upon or shortly after the signal transitions from the anomaly back to the normal state. Or, as yet another example, if the signal is classified as an authorized user, other features of the device 800 in the device 800 may be unlocked. As an optional step, the activity between devices may be correlated through EWS 825.
Fig. 9 illustrates an example mobile device 800 implementing the neuromorphic-detection system of the present disclosure and included neuromorphic-electronic components 104 on an interface backplane attached to the mobile device 800. The signal output from device 800 via the SPI connection was tested. As shown in fig. 10, the exponentially smoothed read signals from 5 users of the neuromorphic platform were input to the neuromorphic classifier and performed with an average of 84.16% accuracy. In fig. 10, the "filtered reading" axis 1002 is dimensionless. They are the result of multiplying the output rate by a linear classifier weight matrix and then applying a low pass filter. The "sample ID" axis 1004 is referred to as a data point index and is therefore dimensionless as well. It should be appreciated that since the index and time are isomorphic (isomorphic) in this case, the x-axis may also be generated based on time.
The classification accuracy of each user is 66.53% at the minimum and 99.21% at the maximum. The average true positive and negative rates were 89.67% and 60.32%, respectively. Since the chip was trained on data for 5 different subjects, the chance classification rate was 20%. These results indicate a reasonably good user classification for low power systems. The spike transition across the time domain represents a user transition 1000, which is measured by the read signal. As described above, when there is a user transition 1000, the reading signal becomes abnormal, and the abnormality (in the reading signal) is detected by the system.
Perhaps more important than user classification in some embodiments is the ability of the neuromorphic system to detect changes in user identity. To create meaningful performance estimates, a continuous alarm aggregation strategy is formulated on the user transition output and the time series is divided into equal length blocks from which a true value (ground-trunk) is determined. First, the user transition strategy sets the minimum interval (margin) between detection of false alarms to 8.2 seconds. Doing so prevents unwanted successive alarms from occurring for the same transition event. Next, the total number of experiments for each alarm test was set to: (total time in sample set)/(2 x interval). If an alarm is not detected within +/-interval seconds of the real time associated with the alarm, the alarm is classified as false negative. If an alarm is detected, the alarm is considered to be true positive. Using this experimental setup, the resulting metric produced 98.74% accuracy in detecting user transitions, with 99.57% true positive and 75% true negative. These results demonstrate the great advantage of using neuromorphic systems as user transition detection systems because of their high accuracy, minimizing the amount of time that local EWS will run, thereby further conserving power.
Continuous behavior-based authentication of devices (e.g., mobile devices) is an important core technology area. In the field of national defense and business where the problem of stealing personal data from lost or stolen mobile devices (e.g., telephones) is growing, the development of improved low power security and authentication techniques for mobile devices has received great attention. Mobile devices are increasingly embedded in vehicles and airplanes, and authentication of these devices is becoming increasingly important in view of the intentional adoption of these systems by adversaries. The security necessary to continuously and reliably authenticate a user with minimal burden requires power-efficient behavior-based inference. The invention described herein provides transformation capabilities for the development of next generation behavior-based authentication and enhanced security protocols for various devices, including mobile devices. Upon detection of an unauthorized user, the device may be caused to perform various automated operations including stopping the operation, pulling the autonomous vehicle safely to the curb and shutting down, locking the user in place, etc.
