However, optimal SNN implementation requires a precise balance of parametric values. To design such ubiquitous neural networks, a graphical tool for visualizing, analyzing, and explaining the internal behavior of spikes is crucial. Although some popular SNN simulators are available, these tools do not allow users to interact with the neural network during simulation. To this end, we have introduced the first runtime interactive simulator, called Runtime Analyzing and Visualization Simulator (RAVSim),\r\n a\r\n developed to analyze and dynamically visualize the behavior of SNNs, allowing end-users to interact, observe output concentration reactions, and make changes directly during the simulation. In this paper, we present RAVSim with the current implementation of runtime interaction using the LIF neural model with different connectivity schemes, an image classification model using SNNs, and a dataset creation feature. Our main objective is to primarily investigate binary classification using SNNs with RGB images. We created a feed-forward network using the LIF neural model for an image classification algorithm and evaluated it by using RAVSim. The algorithm classifies faces with and without masks, achieving an accuracy of 91.8% using 1000 neurons in a hidden layer, 0.0758 MSE, and an execution time of ∼10[Formula: see text]min on the CPU. The experimental results show that using RAVSim not only increases network design speed but also accelerates user learning capability.\r\n \r\n ","lang":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1142/S0129065723500442"}],"type":"journal_article","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2024-04-16T11:14:46Z"}
