SNN Credit Assignment Problem is NOT Unsolved Anymore

The credit assignment problem in Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) has been treated as unsolved for years due to reliance on BPTT and unstable training.

I’ve been working on a data-driven, event-based approach that enables effective credit assignment without full BPTT.

Early results show:

  • Stable training in deeper SNNs

  • Better temporal credit propagation

  • Lower compute overhead

This is backed by real experimental results, and I’m preparing a research paper.

I believe this problem is no longer “unsolved” we’re closer to practical SNN learning than people think.

Looking for collaborators and feedback (SNN, neuromorphic, biologically plausible learning).
