Abstract | Spiking Neural Networks (SNN) are third generation neural networks and are considered to be the most biologically plausible so far. As a relative newcomer to the field of artificial learning, SNNs are still exploring their own capabilities, as well as dealing with the singular challenges that arise from attempting to be computationally applicable and biologically accurate. This paper explores the possibility of a different approach to solving linearly inseparable problems by using networks of spiking neurons. To this end two experiments were conducted. The first experiment was an attempt in creating a spiking neural network that would mimic the functionality of logic gates. The second experiment relied on the addition of receptive fields in order to filter the input. This paper demonstrates that a network of spiking neurons utilizing receptive fields or routing can successfully solve the XOR linearly inseparable problem. |
