Event Driven Learning

Event-driven learning focuses on leveraging asynchronous data streams, such as those from event cameras or spiking neural networks (SNNs), to improve efficiency and robustness in machine learning. Current research emphasizes developing novel learning algorithms tailored to these sparse data representations, including spike-timing-dependent and membrane-potential-dependent methods for SNNs and data augmentation techniques for event cameras. This approach offers significant potential for energy-efficient neuromorphic computing and improved performance in control systems by enabling adaptive learning only when necessary, reducing computational costs and enhancing robustness to system changes.
