ANTShapes Benchmarking Datasets for Event-Based Neuromorphic Object Classification

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces four new event‑based vision datasets created with the ANTShapes simulation tool, designed to support object classification research using spiking neural networks (SNNs). These datasets vary in difficulty and are benchmarked against established spiking datasets such as N‑MNIST, CIFAR10‑DVS, DVSGesture, and POKER‑DVS using a convolutional SNN. The work provides detailed, high‑quality datasets for future experiments and validates ANTShapes as a suitable tool for generating event‑based vision data.

Spikformer V2: Join the High Accuracy Club on ImageNet with an SNN Ticket

Spikformer V2 introduces a Spiking Self‑Attention (SSA) mechanism that removes softmax and uses spike‑based Query, Key, and Value to capture sparse visual features efficiently. It also adds a Spiking Convolutional Stem (SCS) and employs self‑supervised learning (masking and reconstruction) to pre‑train the model before fine‑tuning on ImageNet. The result is the first spiking neural network to surpass 80 % accuracy on ImageNet, achieving 81.10 % with a 172 M‑parameter, 16‑layer model in just one time step.
