Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method for converting numerical values into spikes. The method includes: generating an initial spike sequence according to input numerical values, where the initial spike sequence includes at least one data string, each of which is independently selected from one of a consecutive spike train or a consecutive non-spike train, the number of spikes in all of the at least one data string is equal to an expected value of the number of spikes in a target spike sequence to be generated, and the target spike sequence to be generated is a spike sequence of a spiking neural network within a time period; and randomly selecting and modifying data from the initial spike sequence, so as to form the target spike sequence. The present disclosure further provides an apparatus for converting numerical values into spikes, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium.
