The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Extensive experiments on both static and event-based vision benchmarks demonstrate that BSViT consistently outperforms existing spiking Transformers in accuracy while maintaining competitive energy efficiency.

C2weakest assumption

That encoding queries with binary spikes, keys with burst spikes, and values with dual excitatory/inhibitory binary channels will increase representational capacity and spike interactions while preserving addition-only computation and hardware compatibility.

C3one line summary

BSViT introduces burst spike coding and dual-channel burst spiking self-attention in a Vision Transformer, outperforming prior spiking transformers on static and event-based vision tasks with competitive energy efficiency.
