                    PROGRAM:<\/span><\/p>\r\n

                    Neuromorphic computing tries to mimic the biological neuron, where information is transmitted in the form of spikes, thus being more energy efficient than standard hardware. Moreover, deep learning breakthroughs are typically correlated with increase in model parameters and computing power, which represents a large carbon footprint and is believed to have diminishing returns.\u00a0 But neuromorphic neural networks, namely, spiking neural networks (SNNs), due to sparseness of spike trains and asynchronous processing, represent a more energy-efficient alternative and could replace traditional artificial neural networks in many applications like edge devices or event-driven systems such as autonomous driving. However, as activation functions in SNN models are non-differentiable, stochastic gradient descent (SGD) with the typical backpropagation algorithm cannot be directly used to train SNNs. As such, unsupervised learning with spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) or backpropagation with surrogate gradients have emerged as proper alternatives. In this introductory hands-on workshop, we will learn the main principles of SNNs, including coding strategies, activation functions, and BP with surrogate gradients. Finally, we will implement SNN models for image classification tasks. This workshop thus concerns a timely topic where participants are expected to gain some intuition and practical insights regarding the growing field of SNN research.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
