New framework enables efficient fine-tuning of Spiking Neural Networks for point clouds

Researchers have introduced SpikePEFT, a novel parameter-efficient fine-tuning framework designed for Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) used in point cloud analysis. This method addresses the high parameter and storage overhead associated with traditional full fine-tuning of pre-trained SNNs. SpikePEFT incorporates Intrinsic Dynamics Tuning to adapt membrane decay and firing thresholds, and Silent-State Disambiguation Adaptation to recover task-relevant information from silent states. Experiments show SpikePEFT achieves high accuracy on benchmarks like ModelNet40 and ScanObjectNN while updating only about 5% of trainable parameters, maintaining the energy efficiency of SNNs. AI
