ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK AND PERCEPTRON LEARNING USING SPIKING NEURONS

摘要

A method for communicating a non-binary value in a spiking neural network includes encoding, with an encoder, a non-binary value as one or more spikes of at least one pre-synaptic neuron in a temporal frame. The method also includes computing a value with a decoder matched to the encoder. The value is computed by at least one post-synaptic neuron. The value is based on at least one synaptic weight and on the encoded spikes received from the pre-synaptic neuron.
