High-performance deep spiking neural networks with 0.3 spikes per neuron

Wulfram Gerstner, Stanislaw Andrzej Wozniak, Ana Stanojevic, Angeliki Pantazi

Communication by rare, binary spikes is a key factor for the energy efficiency of biological brains. However, it is harder to train biologically-inspired spiking neural networks than artificial neural networks. This is puzzling given that theoretical resul ...

An exact mapping from ReLU networks to spiking neural networks

Wulfram Gerstner, Stanislaw Andrzej Wozniak, Ana Stanojevic, Giovanni Cherubini, Angeliki Pantazi

Deep spiking neural networks (SNNs) offer the promise of low-power artificial intelligence. However, training deep SNNs from scratch or converting deep artificial neural networks to SNNs without loss of performance has been a challenge. Here we propose an ...

Supervised learning and inference of spiking neural networks with temporal coding

Ana Stanojevic

The way biological brains carry out advanced yet extremely energy efficient signal processing remains both fascinating and unintelligible. It is known however that at least some areas of the brain perform fast and low-cost processing relying only on a smal ...

Time-encoded multiplication-free spiking neural networks: application to data classification tasks

Ana Stanojevic

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are mimicking computationally powerful biologically inspired models in which neurons communicate through sequences of spikes, regarded here as sparse binary sequences of zeros and ones. In neuroscience it is conjectured that ...
