Researchers have introduced Burst Spiking Neural Networks (BuSNNs) to enhance the accuracy and robustness of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), aiming to make them viable low-power alternatives to Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). The proposed BuSNNs utilize Burst-enhanced Spiking Neurons (BSNs) for graded spiking patterns and a Dynamic Weight Constraint (DWC) mechanism to mitigate sensitivity to input perturbations. Experiments on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet demonstrated that BuSNNs outperform traditional SNNs and approach the performance of quantized ANNs in both accuracy and robustness, while retaining the energy efficiency of SNNs.
