There was a paper from 2017 drawing similar conclusions about backprop approximation with Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity: https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.04214 Looks more grounded to current models of neuronal functioning. Nevertheless, it changed nothing in the field of deep learning since then.</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1711.04214/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
