New Phase State Space Models enable parallel training of spiking neural networks

Researchers have introduced Phase State Space Models (PSSMs) as a novel framework for training spiking neural networks in parallel. This approach offers a new interpretation of resonate-and-fire (R&F) neural networks, making them compatible with both real and spiking inputs, and parallel or recurrent execution. The PSSM framework also establishes connections to hyperdimensional computing and retains biologically realistic features, with an implementation demonstrated that incorporates short-time Fourier transforms, recurrent memory, and attentional capabilities.

    Phase State Space Models: Parallel, Surrogate-Free Training of Spiking Networks

    State-space models (SSMs) provide a powerful theoretical framework to enable parallel training of recurrent networks. We expand on previous work adapting SSMs to spiking models to provide a novel interpretation of resonate-and-fire (R\&F) neural networks which is compatible both …
