The number of trainable parameter (i.e., synaptic weights) are similar between the RSNN (236,700), the LSTM (225,975), and the eLSTM (236,919). Event-based inputs are encoded with threshold ϑ = 1. Comparisons with respect to RSNN on Loihi are evaluated as differences for the accuracy and as ratios for all the other quantities.
