Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have emerged as an attractive spatio-temporal computing paradigm for complex vision tasks. However, most existing works yield models that require many time steps and do not leverage the inherent temporal…
The response of neurons is highly sensitive to the stimulus. The stimulus can be associated with a direct injection in vitro experimentation (e.g., time dependent and independent inputs); or post-synaptic potentials resulting from the…
Binary spike coding enables sparse and event-driven computation in spiking neural networks (SNNs), yet its 1-bit-per-timestep representation fundamentally limits information throughput. This bottleneck becomes increasingly restrictive in…
Recent years have seen significant progress in developing spiking neural networks (SNNs) as a potential solution to the energy challenges posed by conventional artificial neural networks (ANNs). However, our theoretical understanding of…
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) have attracted much attention due to their ability to process temporal information, low power consumption, and higher biological plausibility. However, it is still challenging to develop efficient and…
In this paper, we provide a complete mathematical construction for a stochastic leaky-integrate-and-fire model (LIF) mimicking the interspike interval (ISI) statistics of a stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron model (FHN) in the excitable…
The effect of a temporally correlated afferent current on the firing rate of a leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neuron is studied. This current is characterized in terms of rates, auto and cross-correlations, and correlation time scale…
While criticality is widely observed in neural networks, its underlying neural mechanism is not known well. We consider a network of $N$ excitatory leaky integrated and fire (LIF) neurons that reside on a regular lattice with periodic…
Up to now, modern Machine Learning is mainly based on fitting high dimensional functions to enormous data sets, taking advantage of huge hardware resources. We show that biologically inspired neuron models such as the…
Reduced models of neuronal activity such as Integrate-and-Fire models allow a description of neuronal dynamics in simple, intuitive terms and are easy to simulate numerically. We present a method to fit an Integrate-and-Fire-type model of…
We investigate a recently proposed model for cortical computation which performs relational inference. It consists of several interconnected, structurally equivalent populations of leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neurons, which are trained…
Integrate-and-fire is a resource efficient time-encoding mechanism that summarizes into a signed spike train those time intervals where a signal's charge exceeds a certain threshold. We analyze the IF encoder in terms of a very general…
When stimulated by a very large number of Poisson-like presynaptic current input spikes, the temporal dynamics of the soma membrane potential $V(t)$ of a leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neuron is typically modeled in the diffusion limit and…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have been studied over decades to incorporate their biological plausibility and leverage their promising energy efficiency. Throughout existing SNNs, the leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) model is commonly…
The identification of sensory cues associated with potential opportunities and dangers is frequently complicated by unrelated events that separate useful cues by long delays. As a result, it remains a challenging task for state-of-the-art…
In contrast to the traditional principle of periodic sensing neuromorphic engineering pursues a paradigm shift towards bio-inspired event-based sensing, where events are primarily triggered by a change in the perceived stimulus. We show in…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are considered to have enormous potential in the future development of Artificial Intelligence due to their brain-inspired and energy-efficient properties. Compared to vanilla Spatial-Temporal Back-propagation…
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are promising for energy-efficient, real-time edge computing, yet their performance is often constrained by the limited adaptability of conventional leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neurons. Existing LIF models…

Spiking neural networks offer low energy consumption due to their event-driven nature. Beyond binary spike outputs, their intrinsic floating-point dynamics merit greater attention. Neuronal threshold levels and reset modes critically…
