What is the difference between a artificial neural network and a spiking neural network?
I want to know the difference between an artificial neural network and a spiking neural network.
Sure! An artificial neural network is a computational model inspired by the structure and function of the biological neural networks in our brains. It is composed of layers of interconnected nodes that process and transmit information through a series of mathematical operations. On the other hand, a spiking neural network models the behavior of biological neurons more closely by using discrete, binary signals called spikes to communicate information instead of continuous signals.
