1. A method comprising:

  • receiving an input sequence of image frames; and

    utilizing one or more neurosynaptic core circuits to perform operations including;

    generating neural spiking data for the input sequence in accordance with a coding scheme, wherein the neural spiking data comprises, for each pixel of each image frame of the input sequence, neural spikes representing pixel intensity of the pixel, the neural spikes delivered to target axons, and a total number of the target axons that each of the neural spikes is delivered to is based on the coding scheme;

    processing the neural spiking data to extract salient features; and

    detecting at least one region of interest in the input sequence based on the salient features extracted.
