Backpropagation-free Spiking Neural Networks with the Forward-Forward Algorithm
Mohammadnavid Ghader, Saeed Reza Kheradpisheh, Bahar Farahani +1
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) offer a biologically inspired computational paradigm that emulates neuronal activity through discrete spike-based processing. Despite their advantage…
