Brain-inspired computers, called Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), are great for low-power devices like wearables and sensors. But one key part, the leaky time constant (LTC), hasn't been fully studied. The LTC helps these computers process information over time. Scientists tested how changing the LTC affects how well these computers work with different types of data, ...

In the ventral intraparietal area (VIP) of the brain, neurons fire in complex patterns that change over space and time. This makes it tough to figure out where an animal is headed just from these neural signals. Collecting enough data to decode this information is tricky, so scientists need a smart way to handle this challenge. Enter Temporal Spiking Generative Adve...
