脉冲神经网络(SNN)被视为高效处理时序与事件驱动信息的范式。引入延迟已被证明能有效提升事件任务中的脉冲对齐效果。然而,现有延迟学习方法多为静态分配,导致参数量大且难以适应输入相关的活动动态。为此,我们提出拥堵感知的动态轴突延迟(CADAD)机制:将延迟分解为通道级静态基线延迟以构建时间结构,以及全局的活动条件偏移,动态调节不同脉冲强度下的状态更新速率。延迟参数通过可微线性插值学习,并在推理时离散化,保持动态调节优势的同时仅增加极小开销。在语音基准测试中,包括脉冲海德堡数据集(SHD)、脉冲语音命令(SSC)和谷歌语音命令(GSC-35),引入拥堵感知延迟显著提升时序任务准确率,分别达到SHD 93.75%、SSC 80.69%、GSC-35 95.58%,同时相比同类先进方法参数量减少约50%。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are widely regarded as an energy-efficient paradigm for modeling and processing temporal and event-driven information. Incorporating delays in SNNs has been proven to be an effective mechanism for improving spike alignment in event-driven tasks. However, existing delay learning approaches predominantly assign static delays to individual synapses, resulting in a large number of delay parameters and limited adaptability to input-dependent activity dynamics. To this end, we propose a Congestion-Aware Dynamic Axonal Delay (CADAD) mechanism, which decomposes the delay into a channel-wise static base delay for temporal structuring and a global, activity-conditioned shift that dynamically regulates the state update rate under varying spike intensities. The delay parameters are learned using differentiable linear interpolation and discretized at inference time, preserving the benefits of dynamic delay modulation while incurring only minimal additional cost. Experiments on speech benchmarks, including the Spiking Heidelberg Dataset, Spiking Speech Commands, and Google Speech Commands, demonstrate that introducing congestion-aware delays into synaptic signal transmission effectively improves accuracy on temporal tasks, notably achieving 93.75% accuracy on SHD, 80.69% accuracy on SSC, and 95.58% on GSC-35, while reducing the parameter count by approximately 50% compared to state-of-the-art delay-based methods with the same architecture.
