Lakshmi Annamalai, Vignesh Ramanathan, Chetan Singh Thakur

Event-LSTM is an unsupervised learning framework that generates meaningful 2D grid representations directly from raw event streams without requiring labeled data. It produces speed-invariant features through asynchronous windowing, improves noise robustness with a memory-based filter, and achieves superior classification performance compared to hand-crafted features.

Key insights

  • Unsupervised learning with LSTMs can extract meaningful temporal patterns from event data without requiring labeled ground truth.
  • Processing event data asynchronously, based on event count rather than fixed time windows, leads to speed-invariant features and improved energy efficiency.
  • Incorporating historical event data (memory) into denoising filters significantly enhances robustness against spurious noise events.
