SpikeMoE: Brain-Inspired Spiking Neural Networks Integrate MoE for Energy Efficiency

Researchers have developed SpikeMoE, a novel framework that combines Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) with Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) for more flexible and energy-efficient neural architectures. Inspired by competitive neural processes in the brain's hippocampal CA1 region, SpikeMoE uses a spike-based router to select experts based on neural activity. Experiments across vision, language, and multimodal tasks show that SpikeMoE achieves state-of-the-art results among SNNs, matches or surpasses traditional artificial neural networks, and demonstrates robustness in handling missing data.
