Boosting the Robustness-Accuracy Trade-off of SNNs by Robust Temporal Self-Ensemble

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) offer a promising direction for energy-efficient and brain-inspired computing, yet their vulnerability to adversarial perturbations remains poorly understood. In this work, we revisit the adversarial robustness of SNNs through the lens of temporal ensembling, treating the network as a collection of evolving sub-networks across discrete timesteps. This formulation uncovers two critical but underexplored challenges—the fragility of individual temporal sub-networks and the tendency for adversarial vulnerabilities to transfer across time. To overcome these limitations, we propose Robust Temporal self-Ensemble (RTE), a training framework that improves the robustness of each sub-network while reducing the temporal transferability of adversarial perturbations. RTE integrates both objectives into a unified loss and employs a stochastic sampling strategy for efficient optimization. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmarks demonstrate that RTE consistently outperforms existing training methods in robust-accuracy trade-off. Additional analyses reveal that RTE reshapes the internal robustness landscape of SNNs, leading to more resilient and temporally diversified decision boundaries. Our study highlights the importance of temporal structure in adversarial learning and offers a principled foundation for building robust spiking models.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance in code generation, offering new possibilities for translating natural language into executable programs. To further enhance LLMs’ code generation capabilities, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a promising strategy by retrieving code examples aligned with the generation intent to guide the process. However, existing RAG-based methods often suffer from unnecessary augmentation, preference misalignment, and surface-level mimicry, which undermine the effectiveness of retrieved examples in guiding LLMs toward accurate code generation. To address these challenges, we propose SRACG, a Selective Retrieval-Augmented Code Generation framework. SRACG begins with a necessity-aware selection mechanism to identify generation intents that genuinely require retrieval support, thereby avoiding degradation from indiscriminate augmentation. For intents identified as needing enhancement, it first employs a multi-objective retrieval strategy to select examples that are semantically aligned with the intent. These candidates are then further filtered by assessing their consistency with the LLM’s inherent generation preferences, ensuring alignment in both style and structure. Finally, it extracts execution plans from the filtered examples to uncover their underlying logic, guiding the LLM to better comprehend the examples instead of merely mimicking surface-level content. Experimental results on widely used benchmarks show that SRACG significantly improves the success rate of LLM-generated code and outperforms existing approaches.
