ANN-to-SNN conversion offers a practical route toward energy-efficient spiking Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models by bypassing the substantial cost of training large-scale SNNs from scratch. However, existing methods often require many timesteps to maintain competitive performance, resulting in substantial inference l …
Spiking Transformers merge the energy-efficiency of spiking neural networks (SNNs) with the representational power of self-attention, creating a promising architecture for high-performance, energy-efficient computation. However, a performance gap persists versus its counterparts in artificial neural networks (ANNs). Un …
Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) enable event-driven computation through biologically inspired dynamics at the neuronal scale, while Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) perform conditional computation through expert selection at the model scale. Integrating their strengths offers potential for flexible neural architectures. A key c …
Vision-language-action (VLA) models bridge multimodal understanding and robotic control, advancing the dominant paradigm for embodied intelligence. However, most existing models rely on large Transformers, whose latency and energy costs hinder deployment on resource-constrained platforms. Through sparse event-driven co …
