Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) offer low-latency and energy-efficient decision-making on neuromorphic hardware by mimicking the event-driven dynamics of biological neurons. However, the discrete and non-differentiable nature of spikes leads to unstable gradient propagation in directly trained SNNs,…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) can achieve competitive performance by converting already existing well-trained Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), avoiding further costly training. This property is particularly attractive in Reinforcement Learning (RL), where training through environment interaction …
Spiking Neural Networks(SNNs) are a promising paradigm designed to emulate the brain
Spatial embodied intelligence often operates under partial observability, where agents must act to acquire missing information rather than passively consume complete observations. In such settings, progress depends on actively selecting informative actions that reduce uncertainty and support the con…
Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) is effective for training language models on complex reasoning. However, since the objective is defined relative to a group of sampled trajectories, extended deliberation can create more chances to realize relative gains, leading to inefficient reasoning and…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) exhibit significant potential due to their low energy consumption. Converting Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) to SNNs is an efficient way to achieve high-performance SNNs. However, many conversion methods are based on rate coding, which requires numerous spikes and l…
Image Difference Captioning (IDC) aims to generate natural language descriptions that highlight subtle differences between two visually similar images. While recent advances leverage pre-trained vision-language models to align fine-grained visual differences with textual semantics, existing supervis
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are distinguished from Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for their complex neuronal dynamics and sparse binary activations (spikes) inspired by the biological neural system. Traditional neuron models use iterative step-by-step dynamics, resulting in serial computation…
ANN-to-SNN conversion has emerged as a key approach to train Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), particularly for Transformer architectures, as it maps pre-trained ANN parameters to SNN equivalents without requiring retraining, thereby preserving ANN accuracy while eliminating training costs. Among vari…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have garnered considerable attention due to their energy efficiency and unique biological characteristics. However, the widely adopted Leaky Integrate-and-Fire (LIF) model, as the mainstream neuron model in current SNN research, has been revealed to exhibit significant…
Powered upper limb prostheses offer a particularly interesting case of human-machine interaction, where the user and the robot are physically coupled as an open chain manipulator. The biological and mechanical degrees of freedom (DOF) must collaborate for the user to manipulate objects in the enviro…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have received widespread attention in academic communities due to their superior spatio-temporal processing capabilities and energy-efficient characteristics. With further in-depth application in various fields, the vulnerability of SNNs under adversarial attack has be…
