Researchers have introduced Burst Spiking Neural Networks (BuSNNs) to enhance the accuracy and robustness of spiking neural networks (SNNs), aiming to make them a viable low-power alternative to traditional 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 variations. Experiments on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet demonstrated that BuSNNs outperform both SNN and ANN counterparts in accuracy and robustness, approaching the performance of 8-bit ANNs while retaining the low-power advantages of SNNs.
