The spiking neural networks are inspired by the biological neurons that employ binary spikes to propagate information in the neural network. It has garnered considerable attention as the next-generation neural network, as the spiking activity simplifies the computation burden of the network to a lar…
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) present an increasingly popular alternative to artificial neural networks (ANNs), due to their energy and time efficiency when deployed on neuromorphic hardware. However, due to their discrete and highly non-differentiable nature, training SNNs is a challenging task an…
The integration of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) and Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) is gradually attracting attention due to the low power consumption and high efficiency in processing the non-Euclidean data represented by graphs. However, as a common problem, dynamic graph representation learning f…
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) have garnered significant attention for their low power consumption when deployed on neuromorphic hardware that operates in orders of magnitude lower power than general-purpose hardware. Direct training methods for SNNs come with an inherent latency for which the SNNs…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are attracting great attention for their energy-efficient and fast-inference properties in neuromorphic computing.

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are attracting growing interest for their energy-efficient computing when implemented on neuromorphic hardware. However, directly training SNNs, even adopting batch normalization (BN), is highly challenging due to their non-differentiable activation function and the te…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have gained significant attention for their energy-efficient and fast-inference capabilities, but training SNNs from scratch can be challenging due to the discrete nature of spikes. One alternative method is to convert an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) into an SNN, kn…
Deploying object detectors in embedded devices such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) comes with many challenges. This is due to both the UAV itself having low embedded resources in terms of computation and memory, and also due to the nature of the captured visual data with the variations in object…
Spiking neural networks are becoming increasingly popular for their low energy requirement in real-world tasks with accuracy comparable to traditional ANNs. SNN training algorithms face the loss of gradient information and non-differentiability due to the Heaviside function in minimizing the model l…
