arXiv:2608. 13702v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) offer an energy-efficient alternative to conventional deep neural networks by exploiting sparse event-driven computation, but their training remains challenging because the non-differentiable spike function requires surrogate gradients whose fixed shape may be suboptimal across layers and training stages.

Infrared and visible image fusion (IVIF) integrates the complementary information of two modalities into a single image with richer scene content. While existing methods are largely built on artificial neural networks (ANNs), which densely compute over all activations, spiking neural networks (SNNs) communicate through sparse binary spikes and compute only where and when a spike occurs, offering a route to more energy-efficient fusion.
arXiv:2606. 13016v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are promising for energy-efficient inference, and time-to-first-spike (TTFS) coding is especially attractive because each neuron fires at most once.

arXiv:2606. 24075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although deep learning-based methods can achieve high accuracy in automatic modulation recognition (AMR) tasks, their high computational cost makes it difficult to strike a balance between accuracy and power consumption, thereby limiting their application on resource-constrained platforms.

Visual Prompting (VP) has emerged as an efficient paradigm for adapting large-scale pre-trained vision models to downstream tasks by incorporating learnable prompts at the input level. However, existing VP methods typically employ dense pixel-level prompts, which often suffer from redundant perturbations, limited generalization and energy inefficiency.
