Local Synaptic Rules Can Implement a SIGReg Gradient Without Backpropagation

arXiv:2607.21622v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We prove that two canonical local synaptic learning rules, the potentiation arm of spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP$^+$) and homeostatic plasticity (instantiated here via flashlight granule-cell-like neurons), together can implement the exact gradient of a SIGReg-l
