Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
We have developed a spiking neural network (SNN) algorithm for signal restoration and identification based on principles extracted from the mammalian olfactory system and broadly applicable to input from arbitrary sensor arrays. For interpretability and development purposes, we here examine the properties of its initial feedforward projection. Like the full algorithm, this feedforward component is fully spike timing-based, and utilizes online learning based on local synaptic rules such as spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP). Using an intermediate metric to assess the properties of this initial projection, the feedforward network exhibits high classification performance after few-shot learning without catastrophic forgetting, and includes a none of the above outcome to reflect classifier confidence. We demonstrate online learning performance using a publicly available machine olfaction dataset with challenges including relatively small training sets, variable stimulus concentrations, and 3 years of sensor drift.
