arXiv:2607. 27990v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) communicate through sparse binary spike events rather than dense activations, enabling energy-efficient inference on neuromorphic hardware and motivating their use in always-on, battery-powered edge systems.

arXiv:2409. 08290v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) promise higher energy efficiency over conventional Quantized Artificial Neural Networks (QNNs) due to their event-driven, spike-based computation.

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:2608. 19232v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking point cloud networks usually scan space in a fixed, input-agnostic order, which leaves the most distinctive resource of spiking computation, the temporal evolution of the membrane potential, unused as a locus of decision-making.

arXiv:2606. 03026v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking language models expose activation sparsity that dense Transformer runtimes do not directly exploit.

arXiv:2608. 06177v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Binary neural networks are very attractive for constrained deployment, enabling small footprint and low-power inference.

arXiv:2607. 14672v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continuous-time spiking neural networks (SNNs) provide an event-driven framework for temporal computation, computational neuroscience, and neuromorphic hardware.

arXiv:2608. 07066v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) enable sparse and event-driven computation, but their low-bit deployment remains incomplete because recurrent membrane states are commonly retained in floating point even after weight quantization.

arXiv:2607. 26648v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are promoted as an energy-efficient substrate because sparse, event-driven activity replaces dense multiply-accumulates with cheap accumulates.

arXiv:2606. 30676v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying spiking neural networks (SNNs) on neuromorphic hardware demands aggressive synaptic pruning while preserving temporal computation integrity.

arXiv:2606. 27759v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training binary neural networks (BNNs) from scratch is dominated by the straight-through estimator (STE), whose forward/backward mismatch produces severe accuracy degradation as networks deepen.
