Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are at the forefront of computational neuroscience, emulating the nuanced dynamics of biological systems. In the realm of SNN training methods, the conversion from ANNs to SNNs has generated significant interest due to its potential for creating energy-efficient and biologically plausible models. However, existing conversion methods often require long time-steps to ensure that the converted SNNs achieve performance comparable to the original ANNs.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that primarily affects the elderly population and is the leading cause of dementia. Meanwhile, the vascular hypothesis suggests that vascular damage occurs in the early stages of the disease, leading to neurodegeneration and hindered waste clearance, which in turn triggers a series of events including the accumulation of amyloid plaques and Tau protein tangles. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), have been found to be involved in the regulation of AD.
