- Abstract: The Yin-Yang dataset was developed for research on biologically plausible
error backpropagation and deep learning in spiking neural networks. It serves
as an alternative to classic deep learning datasets, especially in algorithm-
and model-prototyping scenarios, by providing several advantages. First, it is
smaller and therefore faster to learn, thereby being better suited for the
deployment on neuromorphic chips with limited network sizes. Second, it
exhibits a very clear gap between the accuracies achievable using shallow as
compared to deep neural networks.

- Addressing caveats of neural persistence with deep graph persistence [54.424983583720675]
We find that the variance of network weights and spatial concentration of large weights are the main factors that impact neural persistence.
We propose an extension of the filtration underlying neural persistence to the whole neural network instead of single layers.
This yields our deep graph persistence measure, which implicitly incorporates persistent paths through the network and alleviates variance-related issues.
