New GNN Training Method Leverages Event Rate as a Feature

Researchers have developed a new method for training event-based Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) that leverages the event rate as a feature rather than treating it as a nuisance. This approach, called Curriculum FiLM Training, conditions the network on the event rate, leading to significant performance improvements on datasets like N-Caltech101 and DVS128 Gesture. The method involves adding a per-recording log-rate scalar that modulates the network's stages via Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM), initialized to an identity function for baseline training.

    Rate as a Feature, Not a Nuisance: Curriculum FiLM Training for Event-Based Graph Neural Networks

    arXiv:2610.26933v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: An event camera emits events at a rate given by the scene motion, object texture, illumination, its own contrast thresholds, and other settings. Across the N-Caltech101 dataset, recorded by a single event camera, the event rate vari…
