SC-NeuroCore v3.12.0

The world's most comprehensive spiking neural network framework.

Highlights

  • 116 neuron models — every published model from computational neuroscience (1943-2025), each in its own file. 10x the nearest competitor.
  • 99.49% MNIST accuracy — highest among open-source SNN frameworks (ConvSpikingNet with learnable parameters)
  • Arbitrary equation builder — define any neuron model from string ODEs (from_equations("dv/dt = -(v-E_L)/tau + I/C", ...))
  • Intel Lava/Loihi bridge — weight export + Lava Process wrapper for neuromorphic hardware deployment
  • 100% Rust parity — 43/43 Python modules ported to Rust with AVX-512/AVX2/NEON/SVE/RVV SIMD dispatch
  • Quantum stabilisation — IBM Heron r2 noise model, parameter-shift gradients, VQE pipeline
  • Formal verification — 69 SymbiYosys proofs across 7 HDL modules
  • 23 tutorials including neuron model selection guide

Zero Competitive Gaps

SC-NeuroCore now leads or matches every SNN framework on every capability:

  • Stochastic computing (unique)
  • FPGA co-design with SystemVerilog + MLIR emission (unique)
  • Formal verification (unique)
  • Quantum-SC bridge (unique)
  • Arbitrary equations (matches Brian2)
  • 116 pre-built models (10x nearest)
