DECOLLE

Deep Continuous Local Learning (DECOLLE) is a surrogate gradient (SG) algorithm leveraging per-layer local errors for online learning of deep SNNs, for which details can be found in reference Kaiser et al., 2020.

Each layer of the SNN is associated to a fixed, random projection layer to compute the real-valued errors.

This library is meant as an add-on to Intel's Lava framework. It is based on the authors' own implementation, which can be found on their GitHub repository.
