STDP based SNNs don't take much secret sauce to function reasonably well for basic tasks[1]. Some people have even started to apply reward modulated STDP to the problem which is nice to see since it's a more complete version of STDP[2]. Even so, the amount of research in the area is tiny. I agree that you need to figure out the whole working algorithm before trying to scale things up but to do that you need a research base and currently that is difficult because running large SNNs is very slow for an average researcher without access to specialized hardware. The primary factor which kicked…
