System and Methods for Customizing Neural Networks

Provided herein is a system including, in some embodiments, one or more servers and one or more database servers configured to receive user-specific target information from a client application for training a neural network on a neuromorphic integrated circuit. The one or more database servers are configured to merge the user-specific target information with existing target information to form merged target information in the one or more databases. The system further includes a training set builder and a trainer. The training set builder is configured to build a training set for training a software-based version of the neural network from the merged target information. The trainer is configured to train the software-based version of the neural network with the training set to determine a set of synaptic weights for the neural network on the neuromorphic integrated circuit.
