Rethinking Attention Locality in Spiking Transformers
Zeqi Zheng, Zizheng Zhu, Yuping Yan +3
Spiking Transformers provide a promising paradigm for efficient visual processing with spike-driven computation, yet their Softmax-free Spiking Self-Attention (SSA) struggles to es…
Self-motion as a structural prior for coherent and robust formation of cognitive maps
Yingchao Yu, Pengfei Sun, Yaochu Jin +7
Most computational accounts of cognitive maps assume that stability is achieved primarily through sensory anchoring, with self-motion contributing to incremental positional updates…
Mitigating Visual Hallucinations via Semantic Curriculum Preference Optimization in MLLMs
Yuanshuai Li, Yuping Yan, Junfeng Tang +3
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have significantly improved the performance of various tasks, but continue to suffer from visual hallucinations, a critical issue where gen…
IP-RSNN: Bi-level Intrinsic Plasticity Enables Learning-to-learn in Recurrent Spiking Neural Networks
Yingchao Yu, Yaochu Jin, Kuangrong Hao +5
Learning-to-learn (L2L), defined as progressively faster learning across similar tasks, is fundamental to both neuroscience and artificial intelligence. However, its neural basis r…
Think Small, Plan Smart: Minimalist Symbolic Abstraction and Heuristic Subspace Search for LLM-Guided Task Planning
Junfeng Tang, Yuping Yan, Zihan Ye +4
Reliable task planning is pivotal for achieving long-horizon autonomy in real-world robotic systems. Large language models (LLMs) offer a promising interface for translating comple…
STF: Shallow-Level Temporal Feedback to Enhance Spiking Transformers
Zeqi Zheng, Zizheng Zhu, Yingchao Yu +5
Transformer-based Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) suffer from a great performance gap compared to floating-point \mbox{Artificial} Neural Networks (ANNs) due to the binary nature of…
