Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 The Balanced SNN Learning Algorithm.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any statements about releasing source code, nor does it include links to a code repository.
Open Datasets Yes We use the standard MNIST [Le Cun, 1998] to test the proposed brain-inspired Balanced SNN model. MNIST contains 10 classes of handwritten digits with 60, 000 training samples and 10, 000 test samples.
Dataset Splits No MNIST contains 10 classes of handwritten digits with 60, 000 training samples and 10, 000 test samples.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide any specific hardware details (like GPU/CPU models, memory, or cloud instances) used for running the experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific software dependencies or version numbers for any libraries, frameworks, or programming languages used in the experiments.
Experiment Setup No Algorithm 1 mentions the initialization of learning rates ηMP, η0, η1, ηST DP, and ηc, but their specific values are not provided in the paper. Other experimental setup details such as batch size or number of epochs are also not specified.
