• Abstract: There is an increasing demand to process streams of temporal data in energy-limited scenarios such as embedded devices, driven by the advancement and expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Spiking neural network has drawn attention as it enables low power consumption by encoding and processing information as sparse spike events, which can be exploited for event-driven computation. Recent works also show SNNs' capability to process spatial temporal information. Such advantages can be exploited by power-limited devices to process real-time sensor data. However, most existing SNN training algorithms focus on vision tasks and temporal credit assignment is not addressed. Furthermore, widely adopted rate encoding ignores temporal information, hence it's not suitable for representing time series. In this work, we present an encoding scheme to convert time series into sparse spatial temporal spike patterns. A training algorithm to classify spatial temporal patterns is also proposed. Proposed approach is evaluated on multiple time series datasets in the UCR repository and achieved performance comparable to deep neural networks.

  Spi-temporal Neural Network (SNN) is a more energy-efficient and effective neural network compared to Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) Traditional SNNs utilize same neurons when processing input data across different time steps, limiting their ability to integrate and utilizetemporal information effectively. This paper introduces a hybrid encoding approach that not only reduces the required time steps for training but also continues to improve the overall network performance.

  Graph neural networks (GNNs) are often the core component of the forecasting architecture. In most pretemporal GNNs, the computational complexity scales up to a quadratic factor with the length of the sequence times the number of links in the graph. We propose a scalable architecture that exploits an efficient encoding of both temporal and spatial dynamics.

We propose a new benchmark for computing tactile pattern recognition at the edge through letters reading. We trained and compared feed-forward and recurrent spiking neural networks (SNNs) offline using back-propagation through time with surrogate gradients, then we deployed them on the Intel Loihimorphic chip for efficient inference. Our results show that the LSTM outperforms the recurrent SNN in terms of accuracy by 14%. However, the recurrent SNN on Loihi is 237 times more energy
