EXODUS: Stable and efficient training of spiking neural networks.

Introduction: Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are gaining significant traction in machine learning tasks where energy-efficiency is of utmost importance. Training such networks using the state-of-the-art back-propagation through time (BPTT) is, however, very time-consuming. Previous work employs an efficient GPU-accelerated backpropagation algorithm called SLAYER, which speeds up training considerably.
