Although artificial deep learning based neural networks have recently achieved impressive results on a range of realisticpattern recognition problems, it is still not completely clear how this problem is solved by the hierarchy of spiking neuronsin the brain which has inspired the deep learning approach in the first place. To achieve high accuracy on real-worldproblems artificial deep neural networks are trained using backpropagation, which is known to be biologically implausible.Recently Lillicrap et al. have proposed Feedback Alignment as a more biologically realistic algorithm able to train a deephierarchy of spiking neurons. In this work we examine whether a spiking deep neural network using such a biologicallyplausible learning algorithm is able to achieve good recognition accuracy on realistic motion recognition tasks.
