Unified Complex-valued Neural Network: A Magnitude-Phase Computational Model for Event-Driven Neuromorphic Learning

arXiv:2606. 29099v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial neural networks (ANN) provide accurate continuous-valued representation, whereas spiking neural networks (SNN) offer event-driven temporal processing, yet both paradigms face limitations when value encoding and timing dynamics must be learned within a single computational structure.
