contents Neural encoding parameters for spiking neural networks (SNNs) are typically set heuristically. We propose a reinforcement learning-based algorithm to optimize them. Applied to an SNN-based equalizer and demapper in an IM/DD system, the method improves performance while reducing computational load and network size.
