Context
This project takes place in the context of the EMERGENCES project (ANR PEPR IA 2023-2027) which aims to advance the state of the art on machine learning models using inspiration from biology. Indeed, inspiration from brain features promises to show the emergence of unrivalled efficient processing. Among the most promising features studied in the literature of bio-inspired AI are temporal data encoding using spikes, multimodal association, local learning or attention-based processing.
