MetaTF is BrainChip's proprietary software development framework built to streamline the creation, training, and deployment of neural networks on their Akida neuromorphic processor. This tool is designed specifically for working with edge AI, complementing the hardware capabilities of Akida by providing a rich environment for model development and conversion.\n\nThe framework supports the conversion of traditional TensorFlow and Keras models into spiking neural networks optimized for BrainChip's unique event-based processing. This conversion allows developers to harness the energy efficiency and performance benefits of the Akida architecture without needing to overhaul existing machine learning frameworks.\n\nMetaTF facilitates the adaptation of models to the Akida system through its model zoo, which includes various pre-configured network models, and offers comprehensive tools for simulation and testing. This environment makes it an indispensable resource for businesses aiming to deploy sophisticated AI applications at the edge, minimizing development time while maximizing performance and efficiency.
