On the Role of Temporal Granularity in the Robustness of Spiking Neural Networks

· 0 citations · 41 references

TL;DR

This study revisits SNN robustness through the lens of temporal granularity, emphasizing the distinct behaviors that occur at individual time steps and proposes a Temporal Granularity Regu-larization term that constrains the TSV across all time steps, thereby improving the model’s overall robustness.

Noisy group neurons with synchronous resetting for high-performance spiking neural networks

This work proposes a noisy group neuron (NGN) model, which incorporates population-level synchronous resetting and neural stochasticity as fundamental computational mechanisms, and develops the NGN method as a framework that combines the NGN model with backpropagation learning based on mean-field dynamics.

Accuracy-Efficiency Trade-offs of Temporal Enrichment in Spiking Neural Networks

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) promise energyefficient temporal processing, but the choice of neuron model affects both task accuracy and hardware cost. We compare three mechanisms for enriching temporal processing in SNNs- heterogeneity, adaptation, and synaptic delays-on auditory benchmarks (SHD, SSC) under controlle...

OT-SAN: One Timestep Spiking Actor Network With Mask-Adaptive Global Connection and Dynamic Thresholds

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) have garnered significant attention in reinforcement learning tasks for their low power consumption. However, traditional spiking reinforcement learning (SRL) methods, which rely on local-connected encoding and fixed-threshold learning, struggle to capture the inter-dimensional correlatio...

Why temporal spike order reversal drops spiking network accuracy and how to partially mitigate it

This study identifies a critical vulnerability in SNNs on recently established bit-based codes: consistent performance degradation when temporal spike encoding orders are reversed, and measures the per-timestep class-mutual-information profile of six encodings directly and shows that the resulting concordance ordering...

Nonlinear dynamics and susceptible spiking of threshold-switching Hodgkin–Huxley neurons

With the development of neuromorphic computing, threshold-switching devices have been widely explored for implementing artificial neurons, but the stability of such circuits remains a critical challenge. This work systematically investigates the Hodgkin–Huxley (HH) neuron based on NbOx threshold devices from the perspe...

A Gradient-based yet Spike-Timing-Dependent Solution to the Feedback Learning Problem in Neural Microcircuits

This work reformulates temporal credit assignment as a state separation problem: extracting task-required components induced by historical perturbations directly from the current neural state, which enables an online feedback learning framework for NMCs through a gradient tunneling algorithm and the lead-lag expansion...
