From event-based surprise to lifelong learning.A journey in the timescales of adaptation

Martin Louis Lucien Rémy Barry

Humans and animals constantly adapt to their environment over the course of their life. This thesis seeks to integrate various timescales of adaptation, ranging from the adaptation of synaptic connections between spiking neurons (milliseconds), rapid behav ...

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 ...

Mesoscopic description of hippocampal replay and metastability in spiking neural networks with short-term plasticity

Tilo Schwalger, Valentin Marc Schmutz

Bottom-up models of functionally relevant patterns of neural activity provide an explicit link between neuronal dynamics and computation. A prime example of functional activity patterns are propagating bursts of place-cell activities called hippocampal rep ...

Approximating Relu Networks By Single-Spike Computation

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

Developing energy-saving neural network models is a topic of rapidly increasing interest in the artificial intelligence community. Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are biologically inspired models that strive to leverage the energy efficiency stemming from a ...

A Time Encoding Approach to Training Spiking Neural Networks

Karen Adam

While Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have been gaining in popularity, it seems that the algorithms used to train them are not powerful enough to solve the same tasks as those tackled by classical Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs).In this paper, we provide ...

Spike-Based Sensing and Communication for Highly Energy-Efficient Sensor Edge Nodes

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Teodor Rosca

Highly energy-efficient wireless sensor nodes are a prerequisite for a sustainable operation of the Internet of things. Therefore, classical approaches for system design based on digital signal processing are not a viable solution, but system design has to ...

In motor-related brain regions, movement intention has been successfully decoded from invivo spike train by isolating a lower-dimension manifold that the high-dimensional spiking activity is constrained to. The mechanism enforcing this constraint remains u ...

Genuinely distributed Byzantine machine learning

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Le Nguyen Hoang, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis

Machine learning (ML) solutions are nowadays distributed, according to the so-called server/worker architecture. One server holds the model parameters while several workers train the model. Clearly, such architecture is prone to various types of component ...

Unstructured neural network pruning algorithms have achieved impressive compression ratios. However, the resulting-typically irregular-sparse matrices hamper efficient hardware implementations, leading to additional memory usage and complex control logic t ...

We propose a novel machine learning (ML)-driven methodology to estimate biomechanical variables of interest traditionally obtained from upper-extremity musculoskeletal (MSK) modeling. MSK models facilitate personalized modeling, perform "what-if" analyses, ...
