Abstract
PCIW (Pulse Coupled Neural Networh) and more generally spiking-neuron models seem to meet the realtime and robustness constraints necessav in on-board pattern recognition applications. However, ejicient learning algorithms are still lacking for such networks. In this paper we consider a feedgoward network of spiking neurons. m e weights and bioses are obtained after a simple transfonnation of those learned with standard back-propagation on a static (stanah-4 neural network We discuss the conditions under which this transformationgives good recognition rates, in the case of handwritten digit recognition.
