    Abstract: Spiking neural networks that perform temporal encoding for phase-coherent neural computing are provided. In particular, according to an aspect of the present disclosure, a spiking neural network can include one or more spiking neurons that have an activation layer that uses a double exponential function to model a leaky input that an incoming neuron spike provides to a membrane potential of the spiking neuron. The use of the double exponential function in the neuron's temporal transfer function creates a better defined maximum in time. This allows very clearly defined state transitions between “now” and the “future step” to happen without loss of phase coherence.
