Adaptive Time-step Training for Enhancing Spike-Based Neural Radiance Fields

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) provide an energy-efficient computing paradigm for neural rendering, but existing spike-based Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) models usually use a fixed inference time step for all scenes. This fixed temporal budget is inefficient because NeRF follows a scene-specific training paradigm, and different scenes require different temporal capacities to preserve rendering quality. This paper proposes Pretraining-based Adaptive Time-step Adjustment (PATA), a scene-wise adaptive time-step training framework for spike-based NeRF. PATA parameterizes the target inference time step as a trainable variable and optimizes it through a two-stage training process. A hybrid input mode strengthens early time-step outputs, while full-step soft supervision, smoothed rendering loss, and temporal-budget loss jointly maintain rendering fidelity and reduce temporal computation. The learned target time step is shared by all ray samples within a scene, preserving the parallel rendering structure of NeRF. Experiments on INGP-NeRF and TensoRF backbones across Synthetic-NeRF, Mip-NeRF 360, and LLFF show that PATA consistently reduces inference cost while maintaining competitive rendering quality. PATA reduces the estimated inference energy by up to 57.57\% on INGP-NeRF and 68.90\% on TensoRF, demonstrating its effectiveness across different neural rendering representations.
