Overview of thesis

My PhD is focused on improving the performance of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs). I plan to achieve this by implementing new learning mechanisms that improve how information is represented within the network. SNNs are very energy efficient but lag in performance when compared to traditional Artificial Neural Networks. The expected outcome of my PhD is a narrowing of this performance gap.
