In virtually all event-based vision problems, there is the need to select the most recent events, which are assumed to carry the most relevant information content. To achieve this, at least one of three main strategies is applied, namely: 1) constant temporal decay or fixed time window, 2) constant number of events, and 3) flow-based lifetime of events. However, these strategies suffer from at least one major limitation each. We instead propose a novel decay process for event cameras that adapts to the global scene dynamics and whose latency is in the order of nanoseconds. The main idea is to construct an adaptive quantity that encodes the global scene dynamics, denoted by event activity. The proposed method is evaluated in several event-based vision problems and datasets, consistently improving the corresponding baseline methods' performance. We thus believe it can have a significant widespread impact on event-based research. Code available: https://github.com/neuromorphic-paris/event_batch.
