Hello Sir, Hope you are alright I am just wondering about your code and results that is shown in your paper, Q1: Do you use encoding mechanism to convert the input images into spikes during SNN evaluation, or you just apply the original images to the first layer T times ?

Q2: In your paper (equation 17 ), you mentioned the derivative functions for training your QCFS, but I cannot find that in your code, and you apply the autograde, am I right ? if yes, is your mentioned results based on equation 17 or using the autograde derivations ?

waiting for your reply, Thank you !

Hello,

A1: Yes, I directly applied the original images to the first layer.

A2: I use pytorch autograd. Also, the derivative functions in the original paper in openreview is incorrect. I have corrected them in a new arxiv version.

Thanks for your attention.

Thank you so much for your response, I appreciate it.

Can you please share the link of your updated version with the correct derivative?

Thank you again
