contents Recent deep neural networks (DNNs), such as diffusion models [1], have faced high computational demands. Thus, spiking neural networks (SNNs) have attracted lots of attention as energy-efficient neural networks. However, conventional spiking neurons, such as leaky integrate-and-fire neurons, cannot accurately represent complex non-linear activation functions, such as Swish [2]. To approximate activation functions with spiking neurons, few spikes (FS) neurons were proposed [3], but the approximation performance was limited due to the lack of training methods considering the neurons. Thus, we propose tendency-based parameter initialization (TBPI) to enhance the approximation of activation function with FS neurons, exploiting temporal dependencies initializing the training parameters.
