The human brain constantly learns and rapidly adapts to new situations by integrating acquired knowledge and experiences into memory. Developing this capability in machine learning models is considered an important goal of AI research since…

Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) with asymmetric learning windows is commonly found in the brain and useful for a variety of spike-based computations such as input filtering and associative memory. A natural consequence of STDP is…

We study risk-sensitive reinforcement learning (RL) based on an entropic risk measure in episodic non-stationary Markov decision processes (MDPs). Both the reward functions and the state transition kernels are unknown and allowed to vary…

The plasticity of the conduction delay between neurons plays a fundamental role in learning. However, the exact underlying mechanisms in the brain for this modulation is still an open problem. Understanding the precise adjustment of…

Deploying event-camera object detectors is constrained by per-frame labeling requirements and GPU compute demands. This work introduces three local spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) modules, including sequence, candidate, and…

The plasticity property of biological neural networks allows them to perform learning and optimize their behavior by changing their configuration. Inspired by biology, plasticity can be modeled in artificial neural networks by using Hebbian…

Artificial Spiking Neural Networks (ASNNs) promise greater information processing efficiency because of discrete event-based (i.e., spike) computation. Several Machine Learning (ML) applications use biologically inspired plasticity…

Spike-timing dependent plasticity in biological neural networks has been proven to be important during biological learning process. On the other hand, artificial neural networks use a different way to learn, such as Back-Propagation or…

Biological neurons can detect complex spatio-temporal features in spiking patterns via their synapses spread across across their dendritic branches. This is achieved by modulating the efficacy of the individual synapses, and by exploiting…
