Abstract

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are the third generation of artificial neural networks that closely mimic the time encoding and information processing aspects of the human brain. It has been postulated that these networks are more efficient for realizing cognitive computing systems compared to second generation networks that are widely used in machine learning algorithms today. In this paper, we review the learning algorithms, hardware demonstrations and potential applications of SNN based learning systems.
