Abstract

Spiking neural networks (SNNs), characterized by bio-inspired neuronal dynamics and event-driven communication, have attained significant progress in recent years. Nevertheless, training deep SNNs remains challenging due to spatiotemporal information loss and gradient mismatching. To simultaneously address these issues, we propose a noisy group neuron (NGN) model, which incorporates population-level synchronous resetting and neural stochasticity as fundamental computational mechanisms. We then develop the NGN method as a framework that combines the NGN model with backpropagation learning based on mean-field dynamics. We demonstrate the advantages of the NGN method through theoretical analysis and experimental validation on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, Tiny-ImageNet, DVS-Gesture, N-Caltech101, and CIFAR10-DVS. The proposed approach achieves an accuracy of 87.35% on CIFAR10-DVS within 10 inference time steps. These results support NGN as a practical approach to high-performance neuromorphic computing.
