The paper presents a spiking neural network (SNN) approach that uses time-to-first-spike (TTFS) coding to limit each neuron to at most one spike per time window, enabling energy-efficient large language models (LLMs). A reference-based strategy is introduced to encode the four core LLM components—embedding layers, layer normalization, attention-related operations, and dropout—allowing the construction of a fully TTFS-based SNN architecture trained end-to-end. Experiments on BERT and GPT-2 show performance comparable to artificial neural network (ANN) counterparts on natural language understanding and common-sense reasoning, while achieving a 1.5‑billion‑parameter spiking LLM and providing an estimate of spike-related energy consumption.

We present a general neurosymbolic reasoning and learning methodology based on a modular integration of answer set programming with an energy based model substrate. Key contributions are: (1) supporting joint optimisation in the continuous latent space through explicit ASP-based declarative semantics fully incorporating background knowledge, constraints, non-monotonic inference; and (2) advancing recent works at the interface of answer sets, probabilistic logic, and answer set modulo theories by providing a generalised model and practical platform for ASP-centric robust, end-to-end training for applications in dynamic domains (e.
