    "In this tutorial, we will implement online inference with event-based state-space models.\n",
    "Online inference is the process of classifying events as they arrive in real-time.\n",
    "For many edge systems, the batch size is 1, and the model has to meet a specific throughput of events per second.\n",
    "Here, you will test if your CPU is able to run real-time classification with EventSSM.\n",
    "\n",
    "The tutorial requires basic familiarity with JAX."
