Temporal-Rate Encoding to Realize Unary Positional Representation in Spiking Neural Systems

Zhenduo Zhai, Ismail Akturk

Unary representation is straightforward, error tolerant and requires simple logic while its latency is a concern. On the other hand, positional representation (like binary) is comp…
