Spiking neural networks promise fast and energy-efficient information processing. The ‘time-to-first-spike’ coding scheme, where the time elapsed before a neuron’s first spike is utilized as the main variable, is a particularly efficient approach and Göltz and Kriener et al. demonstrate that error backpropagation, an essential ingredient for learning in neural networks, can be implemented in this scheme.
