    Abstract: A computing device includes computing modules, each of which comprises a plurality of neuron populations. The computing module is configured to project the input spike train which is weighted by a first weight matrix to a first neuron population through a multi-synapse projection. The multi-synapse projection has at least two different and positive synaptic time constants, or at least two different synaptic transmission delays. In order to realize time-domain convolution in a spiking neural network with low hardware resource consumption, a multi-synaptic projection technology means with different synaptic time constants is proposed. On this basis, a waveform-aware spike neural network for time-domain signal processing characterized by residual connections and skip connections is further proposed. Through these technical means, the performance gap between SNN and ANN is bridged, and SNN with performance reaching or close to ANN is obtained.
