Fourier or Wavelet bases as counterpart self-attention in spikformer for efficient visual classification by Qingyu Wang, Qingyu Wang, Duzhen Zhang, Xinyuan Cai, Tielin Zhang, Bo Xu

“…In this article, we innovatively replace vanilla SSA (using dynamic bases calculating from Query and Key) with spike-form Fourier transform, wavelet transform, and their combinations (using fixed triangular or wavelets bases), based on a key hypothesis that both of them use a set of basis functions for information transformation. Hence, the Fourier-or-Wavelet-based spikformer (FWformer) is proposed and verified in visual classification tasks, including both static image and event-based video datasets. …”
