Towards Energy Efficient Spiking Neural Networks: An Unstructured Pruning Framework

Installing Dependencies

pip install torch torchvision
pip install tensorboard thop spikingjelly==0.0.0.0.12

Usage

To reproduce the experiments on CIFAR10 in the paper, simply follow the default settings

python main.py

You can specify the output path and the weight of penalty term $\lambda$ by

python main.py --penalty-lmbda <lambda> --output-dir <path>

To reproduce the experiments on other datasets, follow the settings in the appendix.
