SBMVTrack is a fully spiking neural network framework designed for energy-efficient UAV visual tracking. It introduces Energy-Weighted Spike Budgeting (EWSB) to constrain spike activity based on computational cost, and Masked Multi-View Target Modeling (MVTM) to enhance target representation by leveraging correlated temporal views. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that SBMVTrack reduces spike firing rates and theoretical energy consumption while maintaining competitive tracking accuracy.

REACT is a fully spiking state‑space model that processes raw event‑camera data one event at a time, avoiding temporal accumulation and its associated delay. It employs a complex‑valued spiking neuron (C‑SiLIF) whose dynamics are driven by the inter‑event interval, enabling continuous‑time state updates at microsecond resolution. Evaluated on gesture recognition and time‑to‑collision estimation, REACT achieves low latency (4.6 ms) and high accuracy, supports anytime prediction, zero‑shot transfer, and INT8 quantization, dramatically reducing energy consumption.

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.
