Incorporating Learnable Membrane Time Constant to Enhance Learning of Spiking Neural Networks

1 code implementation ICCV 2021 Wei Fang, Zhaofei Yu, Yanqi Chen, Timothee Masquelier, Tiejun Huang, Yonghong Tian

In this paper, we take inspiration from the observation that membrane-related parameters are different across brain regions, and propose a training algorithm that is capable of learning not only the synaptic weights but also the membrane time constants of SNNs.

Deep Learning in Spiking Neural Networks

2 code implementations22 Apr 2018 Amirhossein Tavanaei, Masoud Ghodrati, Saeed Reza Kheradpisheh, Timothee Masquelier, Anthony S. Maida

In this approach, a deep (multilayer) artificial neural network (ANN) is trained in a supervised manner using backpropagation.

Representation Learning using Event-based STDP

no code implementations20 Jun 2017 Amirhossein Tavanaei, Timothee Masquelier, Anthony Maida

Although representation learning methods developed within the framework of traditional neural networks are relatively mature, developing a spiking representation model remains a challenging problem.

Acquisition of Visual Features Through Probabilistic Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity

no code implementations3 Jun 2016 Amirhossein Tavanaei, Timothee Masquelier, Anthony S. Maida

The original model showed that a spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) learning algorithm embedded in an appropriately selected SCN could perform unsupervised feature discovery.
