Function pin_isa(argv)¶
Return argv with --target-cpu x86-64-v3 after its mojo subcommand.
Finds the mojo executable followed by build or run and inserts
the baseline flag immediately after the subcommand. The executable is matched
by basename, so a resolved absolute path (e.g. shutil.which("mojo") →
/home/user/.local/bin/mojo) is pinned exactly like the bare mojo
token — otherwise an absolute-path call site would build an unpinned kernel
that SIGILLs on a non-AVX-512 runner. A *.mojo source file is not matched
(its basename ends in .mojo, not mojo). Idempotent: an argv that
already carries --target-cpu is returned unchanged. A copy is returned;
the input list is not mutated.

execution remains the explicit Mojo subprocess surface.

Bin width in milliseconds, used to set the GP timescales tau.

Module compiler._sby_runner¶
Class SbyRun¶
The raw outcome of one :func:run_sby_task invocation.
Attributes¶
verdict : str
The parsed SymbiYosys verdict ("PASS", "FAIL", "ERROR", ...).
rc : int
The return code reported inside the DONE (..., rc=N) summary line.
returncode : int
The sby process exit code (distinct from rc: the process may exit
non-zero on a FAIL while rc classifies the proof outcome).
counterexample : str or None
The failing-assertion description when the output carries one, else
None.
trace_path : str or None
Absolute path to the counterexample trace (resolved against the work
directory) when the output names one, else None.
summary : list[str]
The sby summary: lines, retained for diagnostics.
stdout : str
The full captured standard output, retained for error reporting.
Function formal_tools_available(engine)¶
Return True when the full proof toolchain is on PATH.
Checks sby and yosys plus the SMT solver binary for engine — for
the smtbmc backend the engine name is also the solver executable name
(z3, boolector, yices …). A runner may have sby and yosys
installed yet lack the solver (as on a CI image that ships only the HDL
toolchain), in which case a proof would error out at the engine stage; this
guard reports that case as unavailable so callers and tests can skip cleanly.
Parameters¶
engine : str
The smtbmc SMT engine whose solver binary must also be present.
Returns¶
bool
True only when sby, yosys, and the engine solver all
resolve on PATH.
Function parse_verdict(stdout)¶
Extract the (verdict, rc) from the sby summary.
SymbiYosys prints one DONE (<verdict>, rc=<n>) line per finished task; the
last such line is the authoritative outcome (an earlier DONE (ERROR, ...)
can precede a retried task). Returns ("UNKNOWN", -1) when no DONE line
is present at all — a truncated or crashed run.
Parameters¶
stdout : str
The captured sby standard output.
Returns¶
tuple[str, int]
The verdict token and the sby return code it reported.
Function run_sby_task(workdir, sby_name)¶
Run one already-written .sby task in workdir and read its verdict.
The .sby script and every source file it reads must already exist in
workdir; this call only invokes sby -f <sby_name> there, captures the
output, and parses it into an :class:SbyRun. Counterexample text and trace
path are extracted opportunistically — they are populated regardless of
verdict when present, and the caller decides which fields matter for its
result type.
Parameters¶
workdir : Path
Directory holding the .sby script and its sources; also the sby
run tree and the base for resolving a relative counterexample trace path.
sby_name : str
File name of the .sby script within workdir.
timeout_s : float
Wall-clock limit for the sby process.
Returns¶
SbyRun The parsed run outcome.
Raises¶
RuntimeError
If the sby process exceeds timeout_s.
Function is_inconclusive(run)¶
Return True for an inconclusive result — proved nothing, disproved nothing.
A k-induction (mode prove) run whose base case holds but whose induction
step does not converge reports UNKNOWN with :data:_INCONCLUSIVE_RC: the
property may well be true, but was not proved and no counterexample was found
(the induction step reached the goal from an unreachable predecessor). This
is a real, honest outcome distinct from both a disproof and a tool failure.
Parameters¶
run : SbyRun The raw run to inspect.
Returns¶
bool
True only for the UNKNOWN / inconclusive-return-code signature.
Function raise_for_incomplete(run)¶
Raise when the run is a tool or setup failure, not a verdict about the design.
A PASS (proved) or FAIL (disproved with a counterexample) is a
conclusive outcome, and an inconclusive k-induction result
(:func:is_inconclusive) is a real — if unhelpful — outcome; none of these
raise. Any other verdict — ERROR, a crash with no DONE line, a
timeout — is a tool or setup failure that must not be read as a claim about
the design, so callers invoke this before interpreting a result.
Parameters¶
run : SbyRun
The raw run to inspect.
what : str
Short label for the check ("equivalence proof", "property proof")
used in the raised message.
Raises¶
RuntimeError When the run neither proved, disproved, nor came back inconclusive.
Module compiler._verilog_folded_datapath¶
Function compile_to_datapath(neuron, module_name, data_width, fraction)¶
Compile an EquationNeuron to a combinational processing element.
State is carried on ports — <var>_reg inputs and <var>_next_out
outputs — instead of internal registers, so one PE can be time-multiplexed
across many neurons (the folded interconnect stores per-neuron state in BRAM
and streams it through this PE one neuron per cycle). spike_out and each
<var>_next_out are the post-threshold, post-reset next values, computed by
the same fragments as :func:compile_to_verilog — so the folded datapath is
bit-for-bit identical to the per-instance module.
param_ports names the parameters to carry on input ports instead of
baking them as module parameter defaults. A folded population whose neurons
have heterogeneous parameters drives these ports from a per-neuron parameter ROM
(one value per neuron, streamed by the sequencer), the parameter-space analogue of
the state BRAM. Because the arithmetic body references each parameter by the same
P_<NAME> identifier whether it is a parameter or an input wire, moving a
parameter to a port changes only its declaration — the datapath stays bit-for-bit
identical. Every name must be a real neuron parameter/constant; the rest stay baked.
Escape-rate models additionally expose the already-advanced 16-bit rng_sample
input: the folded population owns one LFSR state per neuron in BRAM and supplies
that sample on the same cycle as the corresponding membrane state.
Pipelining is not supported here (a combinational PE has no register stages); the folded sequencer provides the one-cycle-per-neuron timing instead.
Unsigned emission is rejected because the expression and derivative
datapaths use signed fixed-point arithmetic. Product rounding accepts
"truncate", "nearest", or "bankers"; "stochastic" is
rejected because the PE has no caller-owned product-rounding LFSR.
Module compiler._verilog_registered_module¶

Parameters¶

fraction : int

overflow : str
Overflow mode: "saturate" (default), "wrap", or "trap".
rounding : str
Rounding mode: "truncate" (default), "nearest",
or "bankers". "stochastic" is rejected because the generated
datapath has no caller-owned product-rounding LFSR.
pipeline_stages : int
0 disables global pipelining; any positive value registers multiply
outputs. Must be non-negative and cannot be combined with
pipeline_points.
pipeline_points : list[str], optional
Unique intermediate multiply names to register instead of enabling the
global pipeline.

Module compiler.formal_evidence¶
Function write_precision_formal_evidence_bundle(output_dir, assignments)¶
Write a SymbiYosys evidence bundle for adaptive-precision claims.
Renders the bounded-error monitor RTL, the bound assertion checker, a runnable
.sby script, and a manifest describing the claim. The bundle is
deterministic: identical arguments produce byte-identical artefacts.
Parameters¶
output_dir : str or Path
Directory to write the bundle into (created if absent).
assignments : list[SynapsePrecision]
The precision plan. Must be non-empty.
module_name : str
Top-level module name for the generated RTL and SVA.
execute : bool
When False (default) the bundle is only written and the manifest
records symbiyosys_executed = False — no external tools are invoked,
keeping the call deterministic and CI-safe. When True and the formal
toolchain (sby / yosys / z3) is on PATH, the proof is run
and the real verdict recorded; when the toolchain is absent, a skip reason
is recorded instead of a fabricated pass.
unbounded : bool
Selects the proof method for both the emitted .sby and the executed
proof. False (default) uses bounded model checking to length + 2
cycles — complete because the accumulator saturates. True uses
k-induction (mode prove), an unbounded proof whose depth does not
scale with the bitstream length (the monitor carries the 1-inductive
strengthening lemma the induction needs). k-induction can come back
inconclusive, which is recorded honestly rather than as a pass.
Returns¶
dict[str, Any] The manifest that was written.
Raises¶
ValueError
If assignments is empty.

One-liner: ODE string → (Python neuron, Verilog RTL).
Module compiler.guard_bits¶
Function compute_guard_bits(expr_str)¶

2 guard bits are needed.
Parameters¶

Module compiler.intelligence.bit_true_kernel¶
Function generate_bittrue_kernel(module_name, equations)¶
Generate a bit-true fixed-point kernel from a {var: derivative} mapping.
Each state variable advances by one unit-dt explicit-Euler step using the
same wrap-truncate multiply and saturating accumulate as the RTL datapath.
Identifiers in the derivatives that are not state variables become step
arguments (the input current I maps to I_t when referenced), so the
kernel exercises the bit-true primitives without a per-instance I/O contract.
For a whole-neuron kernel proven bit-identical to the generated Verilog, use
:func:generate_bittrue_kernel_from_neuron.
Parameters¶
module_name : str
Base name for the generated struct / functions.
equations : dict
Mapping from state-variable name to its derivative expression string.
data_width : int

language : str

Returns¶

Function generate_bittrue_kernel_from_neuron(neuron, module_name)¶
Generate a whole-neuron kernel bit-identical to the compiled Verilog.
Mirrors :func:sc_neurocore.compiler.verilog_compiler.compile_to_verilog
exactly for explicit-Euler and discrete-map neurons — parameter/constant
Q-encoding, wrap-truncate arithmetic, the same overflow handling, and the
threshold / reset / spike sequencing of the RTL always block. Threshold
and reset expressions may read <state>_prev aliases for the pre-step
register while ordinary state names resolve to the integrated candidate.
Both state and output fields take the same post-reset value on a spike. The
resulting <module>_step therefore produces the identical per-cycle state
trace as the RTL, which the iverilog co-simulation proves.
Parameters¶
neuron : EquationNeuron
The neuron whose ODEs, parameters, threshold and reset rules are lowered.
module_name : str
Base name for the generated struct / functions.
data_width, fraction : int
Fixed-point format (default Q8.8).

"truncate" (default) or "nearest".
language : str
"c" (default) or "rust".

str Bit-true whole-neuron kernel source code.

One internal result abstracted to a free input port.
Attributes¶
internal : str
Name of the internal signal to abstract (e.g. a multiplier product wire).

Name of the free input port to expose it as. It may differ from
internal so two modules that name the product differently can present
the same abstracted interface for the miter to share.
msb : str or None
Most-significant bit-index expression of the port width, preserving a
parameter-dependent width ("2*DATA_WIDTH-1"). None declares a
scalar (1-bit) port.

input wireport declaration for the module header.
Function abstract_to_free_inputs(verilog)¶
Abstract each signal's driver away and expose it as a free input port.
For every :class:LiftedSignal the internal name is renamed to the target
port name, its declaration and continuous-assign driver are removed, and the
port is added to top's ANSI interface. The result over-approximates the
original: the abstracted result is unconstrained, so a miter proof that
survives it is sound for the concrete design (see the module docstring).
Parameters¶
verilog : str
Single-module Verilog source containing top.
top : str
Module to transform.
signals : list[LiftedSignal]
The internal results to abstract. Must be non-empty with unique port

Module compiler.testbench_gen¶
Function generate_testbench(neuron, module_name, n_steps, input_current, data_width, fraction, cycles_per_step)¶
Generate a Verilog testbench for a compiled equation neuron.
Drives the module with constant current for n_steps logical steps and
monitors spike_out and state outputs, producing a VCD waveform.
Parameters¶
neuron : EquationNeuron
The neuron (same one passed to compile_to_verilog).
module_name : str
Must match the module name used in compile_to_verilog.
n_steps : int
Number of logical integration steps to drive.
input_current : float
Constant input current (Q-encoded internally).
data_width : int
Bit width matching the compiled module.
fraction : int
Fractional bits matching the compiled module.
cycles_per_step : int
Clock cycles per logical step. Combinational modules advance one logical
step per clock (1, the default). A pipelined module advances one
logical step every latency + 1 clocks and gates spike_out to pulse
only on that valid cycle, so pass latency + 1 here to drive n_steps
logical steps; the spike count over the run is unchanged by the padding.
Returns¶
str Verilog testbench source code.
Module compiler.verilog_compiler_config¶
Class Q88¶
Describe a fixed-point word used by compiler diagnostics and emitters.
The historical class name is retained for API compatibility, but
data_width and fraction are configurable. Unsigned instances are
valid for range analysis and raw-word encoding. The equation-to-Verilog
emitters currently reject unsigned instances because their state and
expression datapaths are signed.
============ ========== =============== ================= =============== Mode data_width fraction Integer range Resolution ============ ========== =============== ================= =============== Q8.8 16 8 [-128, +127.996] 1/256 ≈ 0.004 Q4.12 16 12 [-8, +7.9998] 1/4096 ≈ 0.0002 Q16.16 32 16 [-32768, +32767] 1/65536 ≈ 1.5e-5 UQ8.8 16 8 (unsigned) [0, +255.996] 1/256 ≈ 0.004 ============ ========== =============== ================= ===============
Overflow Modes
- ``"saturate"`` — clamp to the representable interval (default)
- ``"wrap"`` — two's complement wrap-around (Loihi 2 hardware behaviour)
- ``"trap"`` — emit a simulation-only ``$fatal`` assertion
Rounding Modes
"truncate" — arithmetic shift towards negative infinity (default)
- "nearest" — round to nearest, ties away from zero
- "bankers" — round to nearest, ties to even (IEEE 754 default)
- "stochastic" — reserved label; equation-to-Verilog emission rejects it
Parameters¶
data_width : int
Total number of bits in the encoded word.
fraction : int
Number of fractional bits.
signed : bool
Whether range diagnostics interpret the word as two's-complement.
overflow : str
Overflow policy consumed by the Verilog emitters.
rounding : str
Product-rounding policy consumed by the expression emitter. The public
equation-to-Verilog paths reject "stochastic" because they do not
own a rounding LFSR.
- post_init()

name ("v_reg") or a constant ("32'd0") that pins a tap a peer
module lacks.
msb : str or None
The most-significant bit-index expression of the port width, so a
parameter-dependent width is preserved ("DATA_WIDTH-1" renders
[DATA_WIDTH-1:0]). None declares a scalar (1-bit) port.
signed : bool
Whether the port is declared signed.
- declaration()
- Return the
output wireport declaration for the module header. - assignment()
- Return the continuous
assignthat drives the tap from its source.
Function expose_state_taps(verilog)¶
Instrument top to expose internal signals as observation output ports.

continuous assign before endmodule. The result is behaviourally
identical to the original on its original ports; the new ports let a miter
assert the state-matching invariant an unbounded k-induction proof needs (see
the module docstring for why hierarchical references and bind do not work
with yosys 0.33).
Parameters¶
verilog : str
Verilog source containing top.

The taps to add. Must be non-empty; port names must be unique and must
not collide with an existing port.

Parameters¶

Weights that produce nearly-deterministic bitstreams (p near 0 or 1) contribute almost nothing to computation — they can be replaced with constant 0/1 gates, saving AND+popcount hardware.

thresholds settle, after which :func:convert produces a near-lossless
SNN (Bu et al. 2022).
Parameters¶
model : nn.Module Model whose ReLU/ReLU6 activations are replaced. Mutated in place, recursing through every submodule. T : int Quantisation step budget for each inserted QCFS layer. theta : float Initial firing threshold for each inserted QCFS layer. learn_theta : bool Whether each inserted threshold is a trainable parameter (the QCFS fine-tuning default).

Function convert(model, calibration_data, T, percentile)¶
Convert a trained PyTorch ANN to a rate-coded SNN.

model takes the threshold-balancing route (calibrated or unit
thresholds, rest-state membrane).
Parameters¶

If None, the ReLU route uses a default threshold of 1.0 per layer. Ignored on the QCFS route, whose thresholds are already learned. T : int, optional Number of simulation timesteps (higher = more accurate, slower). If None, the QCFS route adopts the layers' trained step budget and the ReLU route defaults to 16. percentile : float Activation percentile for threshold normalization on the ReLU route.

Migration tracked under task #36.
Class SCCompilerError¶
Compiler pipeline configuration or target error.
Raised by sc_neurocore.compiler.pipeline for unknown FPGA
target, invalid output names, and path-escape detection.

Raised by the PYNQ driver (missing IP block) and by Verilog export when the model is not in the LIF whitelist.
Class BitstreamOverflowError¶
Bitstream length exceeds the maximum supported width.

silently or raise plain ValueError for related issues
(e.g. the recent Q8.8 dt-underflow guard). Migration tracked
under task #36.

plain AssertionError from pytest assertions instead of
this typed exception. Migration tracked under task #36.

Function ollivier_ricci_curvature(knm, i, j, backend)¶
Compute Ollivier-Ricci curvature between nodes i and j on the coupling graph.
Ollivier (2009), "Ricci curvature of Markov chains on metric spaces." The curvature kappa(i,j) measures how much the neighborhoods of i and j overlap. Positive curvature = neighborhoods converge (community structure). Negative curvature = neighborhoods diverge (bottleneck).
kappa(i,j) = 1 - W1(mu_i, mu_j) / d(i,j) where mu_i is the lazy random walk distribution from node i, and W1 is the Wasserstein-1 distance on the unweighted support graph (an exact successive-shortest-path min-cost flow).
Parameters¶

Coupling matrix (non-negative, not necessarily symmetric).
i, j : int
Node indices.
backend : {"auto", "rust", "julia", "go", "mojo", "python"}
Acceleration backend selector. auto prefers Rust when the
sc_neurocore_engine wheel is built, else the pure-NumPy path.

defect = (1/N^2) * sum_{i,j} |K_ij| * |1 - cos(theta_i - theta_j)|
When phases are synchronized (all equal), defect = 0. When phases are maximally incoherent, defect approaches max(|K|).
This is equivalent to (1 - Kuramoto_R) weighted by coupling.
Parameters¶

- init(base_seed)
- encode(symbol)
- Return the cached or freshly generated hypervector for a symbol.
- encode_sequence(symbols)
- Bind a symbol sequence into one position-aware hypervector.
- vocabulary_size()
- Return the number of distinct symbols encoded so far.
Class PredictiveCodingLayer¶
Single layer in a hierarchical predictive coding network.
Maintains a generative model: top-down predictions are compared against bottom-up observations to produce prediction errors that drive weight updates and symbolic trace emission.
- init(input_dim, hidden_dim, lr, precision, seed)
- predict(hidden)
- Generate a top-down prediction from the hidden state.
- compute_error(observation, hidden)
- Bottom-up prediction error: weighted residual.
- update(observation, hidden)
- One-step gradient update on both weights and hidden state.
- mean_recent_error()
- Return the mean absolute error over the last 50 updates.
- converged()

- register_symbol(name)
- Register a symbol into the lookup library.
- register_symbols(names)
- Register several symbols into the lookup library.
- num_symbols()
- Return the number of symbols in the lookup library.
- infer(observation, top_k)
- Run inference: prediction → error → HDC symbol match.
Module neuro_symbolic.self_verification¶
Class VerificationStatus¶
Status of one self-verification obligation.
Class VerificationObligation¶
One checked condition in a self-verification trace.
- to_dict()
- Return a JSON-ready obligation.
Class NeuroSymbolicSelfVerificationTrace¶
Machine-checkable summary of a neuro-symbolic inference result.
- passed()
- Whether every obligation passed.
- failed_obligations()
- Names of failed obligations.
- to_dict()
- Return a JSON-ready trace.
Class NeuroSymbolicSelfVerifier¶
Build checked self-verification traces for inference outputs.
- verify_result(result)
- Verify a high-level hybrid inference result against its observation.
- verify_trace_only(trace)
- Verify a trace when only symbolic evidence is available.
Function build_self_verification_trace(result)¶
Verify a high-level neuro-symbolic inference result against its observation.
Module neurons._stochastic_threshold¶
Class Lfsr16Threshold¶
Stateful advance-before-compare Bernoulli sampler with replayable reset.
- init(seed)
- initial_seed()
- Return the normalised seed restored by :meth:
reset. - state()
- Return the last emitted LFSR sample/state.
- trial(probability)
- Take one eight-advance sample and perform one quantised trial.
- restore(state)
- Restore a validated live state returned by a native backend.
- reset()
- Restore the exact explicit or entropy-derived initial seed.
Function normalise_lfsr16_seed(seed)¶
Return a valid non-zero 16-bit seed.
None requests independent entropy for ordinary Python model instances.
Explicit zero uses the documented hardware fallback seed so that a C ABI or
RTL parameter can never lock the maximal-length recurrence in the all-zero
state.
Function lfsr16_advance(state)¶
Advance the canonical right-shift x^16+x^14+x^13+x^11+1 LFSR.
Function lfsr16_trial_sample(state)¶
Return the decimated sample used by one Bernoulli trial.
Eight primitive advances suppress the strong adjacent-state correlation of a raw shift-register word. Eight is coprime with the 65,535-state period, so decimation retains the complete non-zero state cycle and exact rate quantisation rather than shortening the generator period.
Function probability_to_lfsr16_threshold(probability)¶
Map p to an unbiased comparator threshold over 65,535 states.
A trial advances the LFSR first and compares its non-zero sample with the
returned 17-bit threshold. For 0 < p < 1 the realised probability is
floor(p * 65535) / 65535; the absolute quantisation error is therefore
strictly below one LFSR period quantum. Zero never fires and one always
fires, while both still consume one RNG sample.
Module neurons._units¶
Function require_pint()¶
Function is_quantity(value)¶
Function require_quantity(value, label)¶
Function quantity_to_base(value)¶
Function build_quantity_namespace()¶
Function validate_quantity_expression(expr, env)¶
Module neurons.base¶
Class BaseNeuron¶
Abstract base class for stochastic neuron models.
All neurons should expose: - step(input_current) -> spike (0 or 1) - reset_state() - get_state() -> dict
- step(input_current)
- Advance the neuron by one time step and return a spike (0 or 1).
- reset_state()
- Reset the internal state to default / initial values.
- get_state()
- Return a dict with the internal state (e.g., membrane potential).
Module neurons.behavior_taxonomy¶
Function behavior_tag_definition(tag)¶
Return the observable definition of a behaviour tag.
Raises¶
ValueError
If tag is not in the controlled vocabulary.
Function validate_behavior_tags(tags)¶
Validate a behaviour-tag collection and return a sorted, unique tuple.
A model is either excitable or quiescent but never both, and a
quiescent model cannot also carry a firing-pattern tag — these
contradictions signal a corrupted or hand-edited tag set and are rejected.
Parameters¶
tags:
An iterable of tag strings (for example the behavior_tags field of a
descriptor or the output of the probe).
Returns¶
tuple[str, ...] The tags, de-duplicated and sorted, ready to store or compare.
Raises¶
ValueError
If tags is not an iterable of strings, names a tag outside the
vocabulary, or carries a contradictory combination.
Module neurons.dendritic¶
Class StochasticDendriticNeuron¶
XOR-nonlinearity neuron with shunting inhibition.
Implements d1 + d2 - 2*d1*d2 (XOR truth table for binary inputs).
Based on Koch, Biophysics of Computation, 1999, Ch. 12.
- step(input_a, input_b)
- reset_state()
- Reset internal state to defaults.
- get_state()
- Return dict with internal state.
Module neurons.descriptor_generator¶
Function generate_descriptor_payload(class_name)¶
Return a curatable v2 descriptor payload for a registered model.
Parameters¶
class_name: Registered model class name (a key of the model registry).
Returns¶
dict[str, Any] A descriptor payload using the v2 section layout, with introspected and carried-over values filled and curation-only fields left empty.
Raises¶
ValueError
If class_name is not a public Python identifier.
KeyError
If class_name is not registered.
Function generate_descriptor(class_name)¶
Return a validated :class:ModelDescriptor skeleton for a model.
Parameters¶
class_name: Registered public model class name to introspect.
Returns¶
ModelDescriptor Parsed descriptor generated from the model code and any curated v1 schema fields.
Raises¶
ValueError
If class_name is not a public Python identifier.
KeyError
If class_name is not registered.
Function merge_descriptor_payloads(curated, regenerated)¶
Merge a curated descriptor onto a freshly regenerated one.
Structural fields (which parameters and state variables exist, their
defaults and initial values, the timestep) always follow the regenerated
payload, which is read from the model code — so the corpus can never drift
from the implementation. Curation fields (parameter units/ranges/meaning,
state semantics, taxonomy, the backend matrix, reproducibility, notes,
validation evidence, silicon evidence anchors, the curated display name and
documentation slug, and any richer provenance, dynamics, or display fields)
are preserved from the curated payload. The curated metadata.name and
documentation.slug are authoritative overlays: a hand-written descriptive
name (e.g. "Ermentrout-Kopell Theta Euler Map") is never overwritten by the
generic generator default. The result is the regenerated payload with
curation overlaid, ready to be re-serialised.
Parameters¶
curated:
The existing on-disk descriptor payload (may carry curation).
regenerated:
A freshly generated payload from :func:generate_descriptor_payload.
Returns¶
dict[str, Any] The merged descriptor payload.
Module neurons.descriptor_tiers¶
Class CompletenessTiers¶
A model's readiness on both catalogue-to-silicon axes.
Parameters¶
science:
Science-axis tier in 0-5 (S0-S5).
silicon:
Silicon-axis tier in 0-5 (H0-H5), or None when the model has
no committed silicon evidence yet.
- science_label()
- The science tier as an
S<n>label. - silicon_label()
- The silicon tier as an
H<n>label, or"none"when unattempted.
Function science_tier(descriptor)¶
Return the science-axis tier (0-5) the descriptor reaches.
S0-S3 are the curation kernel from
:func:~sc_neurocore.neurons.model_descriptor.descriptor_completeness_tier.
A descriptor only climbs above S3 when its evidence facets carry the proof:
- S4 — faithful dynamics: declared dynamics plus a confirmed three-way
agreement with the publication (
validation.dynamics_faithful). - S5 — class-validated: a non-trivial metric and committed evidence
(
validation.is_class_validated).
Parameters¶
descriptor: The model descriptor to score.
Returns¶
int
The science tier in 0-5.
Function silicon_tier(descriptor)¶
Return the silicon-axis tier (0-5) the descriptor reaches, or None.
None means the model has no compile-clean RTL yet (no silicon evidence).
Otherwise the ladder climbs one rung at a time, each rung credited only when
both its boolean flag and its proof anchor are present:
- H0 —
silicon.compiles(iverilog-valid RTL). - H1 — Python<->Verilog validated (
cosim_validated+cosim_evidence). - H2 — synthesisable (
synthesised+synth_report). - H3 — timing-closed and resource-characterised (
timing_closed+timing_report+clock_mhz). - H4 — formally equivalent (
formally_equivalent+equivalence_proof). - H5 — tool-level signed PPA (
ppa_signed+ppa_report).
Parameters¶
descriptor: The model descriptor to score.
Returns¶
int | None
The silicon tier in 0-5, or None when no RTL compiles.
Function completeness_tiers(descriptor)¶
Return both axis tiers for a descriptor.
Parameters¶
descriptor: The model descriptor to score.
Returns¶
CompletenessTiers
The science (0-5) and silicon (0-5 or None) tiers together.
Function is_perfect(descriptor)¶
Return whether a model is perfect by the master-plan acceptance contract.
A model is perfect when it reaches S5 on the science axis and meets the
terminal silicon tier its deployability class declares
(silicon.target_tier). A model whose terminal tier is undeclared cannot
be certified perfect: without the deployability class the required silicon
tier is unknown, so this returns False rather than guessing.
Parameters¶
descriptor: The model descriptor to judge.
Returns¶
bool
True only when S5 is reached and the declared terminal H-tier is met.
Module neurons.dsl_cli¶
Function cmd_list(args)¶
List all bundled schemas.

Module neurons.equation_builder¶
Class EquationNeuron¶
Neuron defined by arbitrary ODE equations as strings.

and the special variable I (input current).
units="strict" enables opt-in pint-based dimensional
validation before the expressions are compiled for runtime.

- Initialise an equation-defined neuron from ODE strings.
- initial_threshold_active()
- Return whether the threshold condition holds on the INITIAL committed state.
- step(I)
- Advance the neuron by one macro timestep; return 1 if it spikes.
- get_state()
- Return current state, with units if in strict mode.
- escape_rng_initial_seed()
- Return the emitted stochastic-threshold seed (legacy API name).

lif = from_equations(
"dv/dt = -(v - E_L)/tau_m + I/C",
threshold="v > -50",
reset="v = -65",
params=dict(E_L=-65, tau_m=10, C=1),
init=dict(v=-65),
)
Use units="strict" with pint quantities to validate the
equation dimensions before runtime compilation.
Module neurons.equation_namespace¶
Function build_eval_namespace()¶
Return the maths namespace exposed to compiled equation expressions.
The returned dict is fresh on every call so a neuron may own its namespace without aliasing another's. The bindings are the exact functions the fixed-point emitter mirrors; keep them identical to preserve co-simulation bit-exactness (see the module docstring).
Module neurons.equation_safety¶
Class ExpressionSafetyValidator¶
Validate equation expression strings against the AST allowlist.
Holds the allowed node set, the blocked-name set, and the maximum AST depth,
and exposes :meth:validate, which raises :class:ValueError on any
disallowed construct. The same validator instance is reused for a neuron's
dynamics, threshold, reset rules, and (for exponential Euler) its symbolic
Jacobian, so every expression that reaches an eval site has passed the
same gate.
- init()
- Create a validator with the given maximum AST depth.
- validate(expr)
- Validate an expression against the AST whitelist.
Module neurons.equation_units_runtime¶
Class StrictRuntime¶
Base-unit runtime values and unit maps produced by strict validation.
parameters/state/constants/dt are the base-unit floats the
integrator steps; runtime_units maps each name (and the input I) to
its base unit for converting runtime inputs; base_state_units and
display_state_units let :meth:EquationNeuron.get_state re-attach the
caller's display units to each state variable.
Function prepare_strict_runtime()¶
Convert pint quantities to base-unit floats for runtime.
Function convert_runtime_value()¶
Convert a runtime value from pint quantity to float.

- fdiff(argindex)
- Return d/dx (exp(x) - 1)/x = (exp(x)·(x - 1) + 1) / x².
Class sigmoid¶
SymPy image of the DSL logistic sigmoid(x) = 1/(1 + exp(-x)).
- fdiff(argindex)
- Return sigmoid(x)·(1 - sigmoid(x)).
Class ExpressionDifferentiationError¶
Raised when an expression cannot be faithfully differentiated in-grammar.
Function differentiate(expr, wrt)¶
Return ∂expr/∂wrt as an equation string in the DSL grammar.
Parameters¶
expr:
The right-hand-side of d(wrt)/dt — an equation string already valid
under the neuron-DSL grammar.
wrt:
The state-variable name to differentiate with respect to.
Returns¶
str
The partial derivative as a new equation string using only DSL-grammar
tokens. "0" when the expression does not depend on wrt.
Raises¶
ExpressionDifferentiationError
If the expression depends on wrt through a construct whose derivative
is not expressible in the smooth grammar (abs/clip/min/
max, a comparison, a conditional, %, //, or an unknown
function).
Module neurons.fixed_point_lif¶
Class FixedPointLIFNeuron¶
Bit-true fixed-point model of the Verilog sc_lif_neuron.
All arithmetic is performed in signed Q(FRACTION) fixed-point with explicit bit-width masking so that overflow/wrap behaviour matches the hardware exactly.

- Execute one clock cycle — bit-true match to Verilog RTL.
- reset()
- Reset neuron state to power-on defaults.
- reset_state()
- Reset internal state (alias for :meth:
reset). - get_state()
- Return dict with internal state.
Class FixedPointLFSR¶
Bit-true model of the 16-bit LFSR in sc_bitstream_encoder.v.

Example¶
lfsr = FixedPointLFSR(seed=0xACE1) vals = [lfsr.step() for _ in range(10)] len(set(vals)) > 1 # produces varying pseudo-random values True
- post_init()
- step()
- Advance one clock cycle; return new register state.
- reset(seed)
Class FixedPointBitstreamEncoder¶
Bit-true model of sc_bitstream_encoder.v.
Combines LFSR + comparator to produce a stochastic bitstream where P(bit=1) ~ x_value / (2^DATA_WIDTH - 1).
Example¶
enc = FixedPointBitstreamEncoder(seed_init=0xACE1) bits = [enc.step(x_value=128) for _ in range(100)] all(b in (0, 1) for b in bits) True
- post_init()
- step(x_value)
- Return 1 if LFSR < x_value, else 0 (one clock cycle).
- reset()
Module neurons.homeostatic_lif¶
Class HomeostaticLIFNeuron¶
LIF neuron with homeostatic threshold adaptation.
Self-regulates firing rate toward a target setpoint via exponential moving average of spike rate. Based on Turrigiano (2012).
Example¶

- to_public_dict()
- Return a JSON-compatible coverage summary.
Function descriptor_path(class_name)¶

Parameters¶
class_name: Public Python class identifier for the model descriptor.
Returns¶
pathlib.Path
Absolute path under neurons/model_descriptors.
Raises¶
ValueError
If class_name is empty, private, dotted, or path-like.
Function load_descriptor_payload(class_name)¶

Module neurons.model_descriptor¶
Class ParameterSpec¶
A single model parameter with its physical semantics.
Parameters¶
name:
Parameter identifier matching the model's constructor field.

Physical unit (for example mV, ms, pA); empty when uncurated.
value_range:
Optional (min, max) admissible range.
biological_range:
Optional (min, max) biologically plausible range.
meaning:
Human-readable description; empty when uncurated.

byte-level variants of the same numerically bounded trace, such as NumPy
transcendental kernels selected by different x86 SIMD capabilities. The
primary digest remains mandatory for a reproducible descriptor.

- True when a reference config and a golden trace digest are present.
- golden_trace_digests()
- Return the primary digest followed by measured compatible variants.
Class Validation¶
Class-correct validation evidence for a model's dynamics.
Records the outcome of two checks (§3-§4 of the catalogue-to-silicon master
plan): whether the model's discretised dynamics were confirmed faithful to
the publication (dynamics_faithful — the three-way schema/class/paper
agreement), and by which metric the model was validated for its class, with
committed evidence. Every field is a recorded outcome, never derived, so the
science tier can read them as ground truth.
Parameters¶
dynamics_faithful:
True when the schema-DSL equations, parameters, dt, threshold, and reset
were confirmed to match the publication (and the hand class where one
exists). Gates the faithful-dynamics tier S4.
metric:
The class-appropriate validation metric from :data:VALIDATION_METRICS
("none" until validated).
operating_point:
Human-readable statement of the operating point the validation used
(for example an input drive or a parameter regime).
tolerance:
The honest agreement tolerance achieved (for example "0 spikes" or a
distributional distance), as a citeable string.
evidence:
A path, citation, or digest pointing at the committed validation evidence.
Together with a non-"none" metric this gates the validated tier S5.
- is_class_validated()
- True when a non-trivial metric and committed evidence are both present.
Class Silicon¶
Ladder of committed silicon-realisation evidence for a model.
Each rung of the silicon axis (H0-H5) is only credited when its evidence
anchor is recorded, so a silicon tier can never be claimed ahead of proof
(master plan invariant I7). compiles is the H0 anchor (iverilog-valid
RTL); each higher boolean requires its companion report to count.
Parameters¶
compiles:
RTL lowers to iverilog-valid Verilog (compile-clean). The H0 anchor.
cosim_validated:
Python<->Verilog agreement by the class-correct metric was demonstrated;
credited for H1 only alongside cosim_evidence.
synthesised:
Passes a real synthesis flow (for example Yosys); credited for H2 only
alongside synth_report.
timing_closed:
Meets a stated clock on a target device with reported resources;
credited for H3 only alongside timing_report and clock_mhz.
formally_equivalent:
Machine-checked Python-semantics<->RTL equivalence in CI; credited for H4
only alongside equivalence_proof.
ppa_signed:
Tool-level RTL->GDSII signoff (open PDK) with clean DRC/LVS/STA; credited
for H5 only alongside ppa_report.
cosim_evidence, synth_report, timing_report, equivalence_proof, ppa_report:
Paths, citations, or digests pointing at the committed proof for each rung.
target_device:
The device the timing/resource numbers were characterised on.
clock_mhz:
The clock the design closes at (MHz); required for the H3 credit.
target_tier:
The terminal H-tier this model's deployability class is expected to reach,
from :data:SILICON_TARGET_TIERS ("" until declared).
terminal_reason:
Why the model terminates at target_tier (for example a research
multicompartment model that need not reach signed PPA).
Class ModelDescriptor¶
The full declarative descriptor for one neuron model.
Class ModelDescriptorError¶
Raised when a descriptor payload violates the schema contract.
Function descriptor_completeness_tier(descriptor)¶
Return the science-axis completeness kernel (0-3) a descriptor satisfies.
This is the S0-S3 base of the science axis — the discovery-and-curation
tiers that need no execution evidence. The full science axis (adding the
faithful-dynamics tier S4 and the class-validated tier S5) and the silicon
axis (H0-H5) are derived from this kernel plus the descriptor's evidence
facets by :mod:sc_neurocore.neurons.descriptor_tiers.
Tier 0 — exists and identifies a real model (class, module, params, state). Tier 1 — discovery taxonomy declared (family and category). Behaviour tags are an optional measured facet, not a tier requirement, so a tier never depends on running a simulation. Tier 2 — scientifically curated: citeable provenance (authors + year + DOI) and every parameter curated (unit + range + meaning). Tier 3 — engineering-verified: at least two implemented backends and a reproducibility anchor (reference config + golden trace digest).
Function parse_model_descriptor(payload)¶
Validate a descriptor payload and return a :class:ModelDescriptor.
Parameters¶
payload:
A loaded descriptor mapping (from TOML/JSON), using the v2 section
layout: metadata, provenance, state, parameters,
integration, dynamics, backends, reproducibility,
documentation.
Returns¶
ModelDescriptor The validated descriptor.
Raises¶
ModelDescriptorError If any required identifier is missing or a controlled-vocabulary field carries an unknown value.
Module neurons.model_taxonomy¶
Function model_family(class_name)¶
Return (family, category_slug) for a model, or None if unclassified.
Function families()¶
Return the family display name to category slug mapping.
Function classified_models()¶
Return canonical model names plus registered compatibility aliases.
Module neurons.models.adaptive_threshold_if¶
Class AdaptiveThresholdIFNeuron¶
Composite reduced adaptive-threshold leaky integrate-and-fire neuron.
The membrane equation is the leaky integrate-and-fire relaxation
tau_m * dV/dt = -(V - v_rest) + I,
integrated with the exact constant-input flow over one dt interval.
The threshold equation is
dtheta/dt = -(theta - theta_rest) / tau_theta,
which is the Mihalas and Niebur (2009) threshold equation
dTheta/dt = a(V - E_L) - b(Theta - Theta_inf) taken at zero voltage
coupling (a = 0), integrated with the same exact relaxation. A spike
is emitted when the candidate membrane potential reaches the candidate
threshold; the membrane potential then resets to v_reset and the
threshold increases by the fixed amount delta_theta — the fixed
post-spike threshold shift derived in Platkiewicz and Brette (2010).
Reduction boundary: the Mihalas–Niebur voltage-coupling term a(V - E_L)
and the Platkiewicz–Brette voltage-dependent threshold equilibrium
theta_inf(V) are outside this reduced model, as is any adaptation
current. Defaults are catalogue/model-family choices, not source-derived
parameters.

Module neurons.models.alpha¶
Class AlphaNeuron¶
Dual excitatory/inhibitory alpha-synapse leaky integrate-and-fire neuron.
The membrane equation is the leaky integrate-and-fire relaxation
tau_v * dV/dt = -(V - v_rest) + i_exc - i_inh,
and each synaptic current is carried by a two-state alpha cascade
(rise a, current i) that reproduces Rall's alpha kernel
alpha(t) ~ (t/tau) * exp(1 - t/tau) for a pulse input. A spike is
emitted when the candidate membrane potential reaches v_threshold;
only the membrane potential resets (v <- v_rest); the synaptic
cascade states are preserved across spikes.
The maintained numerical step is the exact piecewise-constant-input flow: each alpha filter relaxes exactly, and the membrane update integrates the alpha currents with the exact convolution, including the equal-time-constant limit. This exact flow is the engineering contract, not a biological publication claim.
Defaults tau_v=20, tau_exc=5, tau_inh=10, v_rest=0,
v_threshold=1, and dt=1.0 are catalogue/model-family choices,
not source-derived parameters.

Module neurons.models.chay_keizer¶
Class ChayKeizerNeuron¶
Chay & Keizer 1983 pancreatic beta-cell minimal model (five-state burster).
The original five-dimensional model: membrane potential v, the
Hodgkin-Huxley activation/inactivation gates m/h of the inward
calcium current, the delayed-rectifier potassium activation n, and the
free cytosolic calcium concentration ca (the slow variable that packages
spikes into bursts). Calcium enters through the voltage-gated calcium channel
during the active phase, gradually activating a calcium-dependent potassium
conductance until it terminates the burst; calcium then decays through the
silent phase until the next burst begins. With the published parameters the
model produces square-wave bursts with a period of order ten to twenty
seconds and a cytosolic calcium oscillation of order one micromolar.
The conductances follow the Hodgkin-Huxley convention written as
g (E_rev - V) (inward positive). The gate rate functions are the
Hodgkin-Huxley 1952 forms with the membrane potential shifted by v_prime
for the calcium gates and v_star for the potassium gate, scaled by the
temperature factor phi; calcium influx is the surface-to-volume scaled
calcium current minus a first-order pump removal.

Module neurons.models.chay_keizer_minimal¶
Class ChayKeizerMinimalNeuron¶
Reduced three-state Chay-Keizer pancreatic beta-cell burster.
The essential bursting dynamics of the original five-state Chay-Keizer model
reduced to three variables: membrane potential v, the delayed-rectifier
potassium activation n, and the free cytosolic calcium c (the slow
variable). The calcium-current activation is taken at its instantaneous
steady state, so the fast spikes are generated by the v-n subsystem
while calcium slowly accumulates through the active phase, activates a
calcium-dependent potassium conductance, and terminates the burst; calcium is
then pumped down through the silent phase. A constant ATP-sensitive potassium
conductance sets the excitability (the glucose handle).
Currents follow the convention g (V - E_rev) (outward positive) in the
physical units of the reference (picosiemens, femtofarads, femtoamperes,
millivolts, micromolar, milliseconds). With the published parameters the cell
bursts autonomously: fast spikes ride an active-phase plateau near -20 mV with
a silent phase near -65 mV, while cytosolic calcium traces a slow sawtooth.

Boundary conductance increments are applied before integration. Outside
refractory periods, the full (v, g_e, g_i) candidate is advanced with
coupled RK4. After a spike the voltage remains at v_reset for the
source's 5 ms refractory interval while both conductances continue their
RK4 decay. Every update is candidate-first and mutation-atomic.
The continuous equations and factory defaults reproduce Benchmark 1 in Brette et al. (2007). RK4 is the maintained repository discretisation; the paper compared Euler, second-order Runge--Kutta, and spike-interpolated Euler implementations rather than prescribing RK4.

Module neurons.models.dpi_neuron¶
Class DPINeuron¶
Current-mode conductance-based DPI silicon neuron.
This class advances the coupled subthreshold equations derived for the differential-pair-integrator circuit by Indiveri, Stefanini, and Chicca (2010), Eqs. (2)--(3):
.. math::
I_{fb} = I_0^{1/(\kappa+1)} I_{mem}^{\kappa/(\kappa+1)} \left[1 + e^{-\alpha(I_{mem}-I_{th})}\right]^{-1}
.. math::
\tau \dot I_{mem} = \frac{I_{mem}}{I_\tau} \left(\frac{I_{rest}+I_{inj}}{1 + I_{mem}/I_g} - I_\tau + I_{fb} - I_{ahp}\right)
.. math::
\tau_{ahp} \dot I_{ahp} = \frac{I_{ahp}}{I_{\tau ahp}} \left(\frac{I_{spk} r(t)}{1 + I_{ahp}/I_{ga}} - I_{\tau ahp}\right).
r(t) is one for the programmable refractory pulse and zero otherwise.
The membrane is held at i_reset during that pulse. The continuous
equations use a simultaneous explicit-Euler update; a threshold crossing
starts the pulse for the following step, matching the schema and RTL
macro-step ordering.

Module neurons.models.durstewitz_dopamine¶
Class DurstewitzDopamineNeuron¶
Durstewitz, Seamans & Sejnowski 2000 — PFC neuron with D1 modulation.
A minimal Hodgkin-Huxley prefrontal pyramidal cell with fast Na⁺
(instantaneous activation m_∞, dynamic inactivation h_na), a
delayed-rectifier K⁺ (n_k), an NMDA current with the Jahr & Stevens
(1990) Mg²⁺ block, and an ohmic leak — the three-state (V, h_na, n_k)
system. D1 agonism (d1_level in [0, 1]) enhances NMDA
(g_nmda_scale), shifts the Na⁺ half-activation (v_shift_na), and
enhances K⁺ (g_k_scale), stabilising persistent up-states.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the three-state
system: each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side from one consistent
state, forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once finite. The
historical hard-coded forward-Euler update — which advanced the gates from
the old voltage and then the voltage from the freshly updated gates, mixing
two inconsistent states — remains reachable only through the explicit
integrator="baseline_euler" regression option, which now evaluates a
single consistent right-hand side.

Module neurons.models.ermentrout_kopell_pop¶
Class ErmentroutKopellPopulation¶
Represent the exact macroscopic QIF firing-rate equations.
The public class name is retained for compatibility. Its dynamics are
equations (12a–b) of Montbrió, Pazó, and Roxin (2015), not the single-cell
Ermentrout–Kopell theta model. tau restores an explicit membrane time
scale to the dimensionless source equations, so the maintained flow is
dr/dt = delta/(pi*tau**2) + 2*r*v/tau
dv/dt = (v**2 + eta_bar + I + j*tau*r - (pi*tau*r)**2)/tau.
One call to :meth:step applies a simultaneous explicit-Euler update.
That solver is an implementation contract; the publication specifies the
continuous ordinary differential equations.
Parameters¶
r : float, default=0.1 Initial population firing rate. It must be non-negative. v : float, default=-2.0 Initial mean membrane potential. tau : float, default=1.0 Positive membrane time scale. delta : float, default=1.0 Non-negative half-width of the Lorentzian excitability distribution. eta_bar : float, default=-5.0 Centre of the excitability distribution. j : float, default=15.0 Recurrent coupling strength. dt : float, default=0.01 Positive explicit-Euler step.

Module neurons.models.expif¶
Class ExpIFNeuron¶
Fourcaud-Trocmé exponential integrate-and-fire neuron.
The deterministic voltage flow is
tau * dv/dt = -(v - v_rest) + delta_t * exp((v - v_rh) / delta_t) + current.
v_rh is the soft threshold of the exponential current;
v_threshold is the finite numerical cutoff at which a spike is emitted
and v resets. Runge-Kutta stages are bounded at that event surface, so
stages that overshoot the cutoff cannot evaluate an irrelevant divergent
voltage. refractory_period=1.7 reproduces the refractory duration used
for the paper's fitted Wang-Buzsáki comparison; the zero default is the
deterministic schema-to-RTL contract.
Parameters¶
v: Initial membrane voltage in millivolts. v_rest: Leak reversal voltage in millivolts. v_reset: Post-spike reset voltage in millivolts. v_threshold: Finite numerical spike cutoff in millivolts. v_rh: Soft exponential threshold in millivolts. delta_t: Positive exponential slope factor in millivolts. tau: Positive membrane time constant in milliseconds. dt: Positive integration timestep in milliseconds. refractory_period: Non-negative post-spike hold duration in milliseconds. refractory_remaining: Non-negative runtime remainder of the refractory hold.

Module neurons.models.golomb_fs¶
Class GolombFSNeuron¶
Golomb et al. 2007 — fast-spiking cortical interneuron with a Kv3 current.
The membrane potential follows
C dV/dt = -I_Na - I_Kd - I_Kv3 - I_L + I_ext
with transient sodium I_Na = g_Na m_inf^3 h (V - E_Na) (instantaneous
activation), delayed-rectifier I_Kd = g_Kd n^4 (V - E_K), the fast
high-threshold I_Kv3 = g_Kv3 p^2 (V - E_K) that sharpens spikes and sustains
high-frequency firing, and an ohmic leak. All gating variables relax through
sigmoidal steady states, so the right-hand side has no removable singularities.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the four-state
(V, h, n, p) system: each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side from
one consistent state, forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once finite.
The historical hard-coded forward-Euler update — which staggered the gate and
membrane increments against mismatched states — remains reachable only through
the explicit integrator="baseline_euler" regression option.

Module neurons.models.gutkin_ermentrout¶
Class GutkinErmentroutNeuron¶
Gutkin-Ermentrout persistent-sodium conductance neuron.
The model keeps voltage v and delayed-rectifier activation n as
dynamic states. Persistent sodium activation is instantaneous through
m_inf(v). The implementation advances the coupled ODE with a
candidate-first fourth-order Runge-Kutta step and commits the candidate
only when the complete numeric contract remains finite and biologically
bounded.
Parameters¶
v:
Membrane voltage state in the inherited normalized millivolt scale.
n:
Delayed-rectifier potassium activation gate. Must remain in [0, 1].
g_na:
Persistent sodium conductance. Must be non-negative.
g_k:
Delayed-rectifier potassium conductance. Must be non-negative.
g_l:
Leak conductance. Must be non-negative.
e_na:
Sodium reversal potential.
e_k:
Potassium reversal potential.
e_l:
Leak reversal potential.
dt:
Integration step. Must be positive and finite.
v_threshold:
Upward voltage-crossing spike threshold.
Raises¶
ValueError If the initial parameters violate the finite-state, conductance, gate, or timestep contract.
Notes¶
The historical SC-NeuroCore surface uses an implicit unit membrane capacitance for this reduced model. Spike output is an event marker from the threshold crossing; voltage is not reset by this model.

Module neurons.models.hill_tononi¶
Class HillTononiNeuron¶
Hill & Tononi 2005 — thalamocortical sleep/wake neuron.
A conductance-based cell with fast Na⁺ (instantaneous m_∞, dynamic
inactivation h_na), delayed-rectifier K⁺ (n_k), a hyperpolarisation-
activated Ih (m_h), a low-threshold T-type Ca²⁺ current (instantaneous
m_T, dynamic inactivation h_t), a sodium-dependent K⁺ current
(I_KNa gated by intracellular na_i through a Hill function), and an
ohmic leak — the six-state (V, h_na, n_k, m_h, h_t, na_i) system. The
intracellular sodium accumulates from the sodium current and is removed by a
saturating Na/K pump.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the six-state system:
each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side from one consistent state,
forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once finite. The historical
hard-coded forward-Euler update — which advanced the gates from the old
voltage and then the voltage and sodium from the freshly updated gates,
mixing inconsistent states — remains reachable only through the explicit
integrator="baseline_euler" regression option.
The sodium concentration is clamped to be non-negative once per committed
step, matching the original. The conductance powers use explicit
multiplication and the I_KNa Hill exponent 3.5 is evaluated as
b·b·b·sqrt(b) (an IEEE-754 exact decomposition of b**3.5) so the
Rust, Julia, Go, and Mojo kernels reproduce the trajectory bit-for-bit
rather than depending on a per-platform pow implementation.

Module neurons.models.iqif¶
Class IntegerQIFNeuron¶
Wu et al. (2021) piecewise-linear integer QIF soma.
Parameters¶
v : int, default=128
Live integer membrane state.
v_rest : int, default=128
Resting state and state restored by :meth:reset.
v_threshold : int, default=200
Upper piecewise-force reference, not the spike threshold.
v_reset : int, default=128
State committed after a candidate exceeds v_max.
a, b : int, default=1
Non-negative Q0.3 numerator coefficients. The recurrence applies
(coefficient * difference) >> 3.
v_max, v_min : int, default=255, 0
Strict upper event boundary and inclusive lower state clamp.
Notes¶
The branch point is trunc((b*v_threshold + a*v_rest)/(a+b)).
One step computes the source force from the pre-step state, applies the
Q0.3 arithmetic shift and current, emits when the candidate is strictly
greater than v_max, then hard-resets to v_reset. Otherwise the
candidate is clamped only at v_min.

Single-compartment crustacean STG model with seven voltage-gated currents (Na, CaT, CaS, A, KCa, Kd, H) plus a leak, in the Prinz/LGMA unit convention (conductances in mS/cm², capacitance in µF/cm², calcium in µM, voltage in mV, time in ms). All gates use the published voltage-dependent steady states and time constants; the calcium reversal is computed from the Nernst equation, and intracellular calcium relaxes towards rest with a 20 ms time constant driven by the two calcium currents. The thirteen-state vector is integrated with classical fourth-order Runge-Kutta.
Parameters¶
v : float Membrane potential (mV). m_na, h_na, m_cat, h_cat, m_cas, h_cas, m_a, h_a, m_kca, m_kd, m_h : float Gating variables in [0, 1]. ca : float Intracellular calcium concentration (µM, ≥ 0). cm : float Specific membrane capacitance (µF/cm²). g_na, g_cat, g_cas, g_a, g_kca, g_kd, g_h, g_l : float Maximal conductances (mS/cm²). e_na, e_k, e_h, e_l : float Reversal potentials (mV). The calcium reversal is Nernst-derived. ca_out : float Extracellular calcium concentration (µM) for the Nernst equation. ca_rest : float Resting calcium concentration (µM). tau_ca : float Calcium relaxation time constant (ms). f_ca : float Calcium-current-to-concentration coupling (µM·cm²/µA). celsius : float Temperature (°C) for the Nernst equation. dt : float Integration time step (ms). v_threshold : float Voltage at which a spike is registered (mV).

Module neurons.models.martinotti_neuron¶
Class MartinottiNeuron¶
Martinotti cell — adapting interneuron targeting layer 1 apical dendrites.
Pospischil 2008 gating with fast Na⁺, delayed-rectifier K⁺, a very strong
M-current (Kv7) that gives the pronounced spike-frequency adaptation
characteristic of the type, a low-threshold T-type Ca²⁺ current for rebound,
and an ohmic leak — the six-state (V, m, h, n, p, s) system (T-type
activation m_T is instantaneous; unlike the SST cell there is no Ih).
The sodium and potassium activation rates follow the Traub-Miles
x/(exp(±x/k)-1) form and use the L'Hôpital limit at the removable
singularity. The β_m numerator is the published V - V_T - 40 offset; an
earlier revision shared the -17 offset of α_h, which lowered β_m enough to
drive the cell into depolarisation block (it fired two or three spikes then
stuck near threshold for any stimulus). The corrected kinetics restore a
monotone frequency-current relation.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the six-state system:
each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side from one consistent state,
forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once finite. The historical
hard-coded forward-Euler update — which staggered the gate and membrane
increments against mismatched states — remains reachable only through the
explicit integrator="baseline_euler" regression option.

Module neurons.models.mcculloch_pitts¶
Class McCullochPittsNeuron¶
McCulloch and Pitts' 1943 all-or-none logical neuron.
Parameters¶
theta : int, default=1 Positive number of simultaneously active excitatory afferents required to excite the neuron when no inhibitory afferent is active.
Notes¶
:meth:step maps afferent activity at one network instant to activity one
synaptic delay later. The delay belongs to the network scheduler; the
formal neuron has no evolving membrane state. Any active inhibitory
afferent is an absolute veto, independent of the excitatory count.

Class MulticompartmentMCNNeuron¶

Module neurons.models.poisson¶
Class PoissonNeuron¶
Generate homogeneous Poisson events in discrete binary time bins.
Parameters¶
rate_hz : float, default=100.0
Non-negative homogeneous event rate in hertz.
dt_ms : float, default=1.0
Positive bin width in milliseconds. Multiple arrivals within one bin
collapse to one event.
seed : int or None, default=0xACE1
Replay seed for the canonical 16-bit LFSR. None draws one concrete
non-zero seed from system entropy and retains it for subsequent resets.
Notes¶
Each accepted bin uses the exact finite-interval event probability
1 - exp(-rate_hz * dt_ms / 1000) and advances the shared LFSR16 by
exactly one trial (eight primitive shifts). The generator therefore models
a binary-bin observation of a homogeneous Poisson process, not an
unbounded within-bin arrival count.

Module neurons.models.pospischil¶
Class PospischilNeuron¶
Pospischil et al. 2008 — minimal Hodgkin-Huxley cortical/thalamic neuron.
The membrane potential follows
C dV/dt = -I_Na - I_Kd - I_M - I_L + I_ext
with transient sodium I_Na = g_Na m^3 h (V - E_Na), delayed-rectifier
potassium I_Kd = g_Kd n^4 (V - E_K), the slow voltage-gated potassium
adaptation current I_M = g_M p (V - E_K), and an ohmic leak. The Traub-Miles
activation kinetics are written against the shifted potential V - V_T and the
M current uses the Yamada p_inf/tau_p relaxation. The slow I_M
conductance selects the firing class: g_M = 0.07 regular spiking (default),
g_M = 0 fast spiking, g_M = 0.03 intrinsically bursting.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the five-state
(V, m, h, n, p) system: every sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side
from one consistent state, forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once it
is finite. The historical hard-coded forward-Euler update — which evaluated the
gates and the membrane against mismatched states — remains reachable only through
the explicit integrator="baseline_euler" option for regression comparison.

C dV/dt = -I_Na - I_K - I_Kv3 - I_L + I_ext
with transient sodium I_Na = g_Na m_inf^3 h (V - E_Na) (instantaneous

current I_Kv3 = g_Kv3 p (V - E_K) that narrows the action potential and
sustains >200 Hz firing without adaptation, and an ohmic leak. The h and
n gates carry the Wang-Buzsáki temperature factor phi.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the four-state
(V, h, n, p) system: each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side from
one consistent state, forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once finite.
The historical hard-coded forward-Euler update — which staggered the gate and

Module neurons.models.resonate_and_fire¶
Class ResonateAndFireNeuron¶
Damped complex resonator from Izhikevich (2001).
The source defines z = x + i y and
dz/dt = (b + i * omega) * z + I.
x is current-like and y is voltage-like. A spike is emitted on an
upward sampled crossing of y = threshold. The source post-spike reset
is z = i; the generalized implementation therefore installs
(x, y) = (0, threshold). The maintained numerical step is the exact
constant-real-input flow over one dt interval.
Defaults b=-1, omega=10, and threshold=1 are the parameter set
used for most illustrations in the source paper. dt=0.01 is an
implementation sampling interval, not a parameter asserted by the paper.

Module neurons.models.srm0¶
Class SRM0Neuron¶
Spike Response Model with exact constant-current kernel flow.
The zeroth-order Spike Response Model keeps membrane potential v and a
refractory afterhyperpolarisation kernel eta. During one step, external
current is held constant and the coupled linear system for (v, eta) is
integrated analytically. This avoids the first-order membrane Euler error
while preserving the SRM0 threshold/reset semantics.
Parameters¶
v:
Membrane potential state.
v_rest:
Rest potential and post-spike voltage reset.
v_threshold:
Spike threshold. A spike is emitted when the exact-flow candidate
reaches or exceeds this value.
tau_m:
Membrane time constant. Must be positive and finite.
tau_eta:
Refractory-kernel decay time constant. Must be positive and finite.
eta_reset:
Positive refractory-kernel amplitude. On spike, eta is set to
-eta_reset.
resistance:
Current-to-voltage gain.
dt:
Integration step. Must be positive and finite.
Raises¶
TypeError If a scalar parameter is not numeric. ValueError If a parameter is non-finite or a positive contract is violated.

K⁺ for the spike, an M-current (Kv7) for spike-frequency adaptation, a
low-threshold T-type Ca²⁺ current for rebound bursting, Ih for the
hyperpolarisation sag, and an ohmic leak — the seven-state
(V, m, h, n, p, s, r) system (T-type activation m_T is instantaneous).
The sodium and potassium activation rates follow the Traub-Miles
x/(exp(±x/k)-1) form and use the L'Hôpital limit at the removable
singularity. The β_m numerator is the published V - V_T - 40 offset; an
earlier revision shared the -17 offset of α_h, which lowered β_m enough to
drive the cell into depolarisation block (it fired three spikes then stuck near
threshold for any stimulus). The corrected kinetics restore a monotone
frequency-current relation.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the seven-state system:
each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side from one consistent state,
forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once finite. The historical
hard-coded forward-Euler update — which staggered the gate and membrane
increments against mismatched states — remains reachable only through the
explicit integrator="baseline_euler" regression option.

VIP (vasoactive intestinal peptide) irregular-spiking interneuron.

with transient sodium I_Na = g_Na m_inf^3 h (V - E_Na) (instantaneous
activation), delayed-rectifier I_K = g_K n^4 (V - E_K), a transient A-type
I_A = g_A a^3 b (V - E_K) (Kv4) whose slow inactivation produces the firing
accommodation typical of the small high-input-resistance VIP soma, and an ohmic
leak. Every gating variable relaxes through a sigmoidal steady state, so the
right-hand side has no removable singularities.
The production integrator is candidate-first RK4 over the five-state
(V, h, n, a, b) system: each sub-step evaluates the full right-hand side
from one consistent state, forms the RK4 candidate, and commits it only once
finite. The historical hard-coded forward-Euler update — which staggered the
gate and membrane increments against mismatched states — remains reachable only
through the explicit integrator="baseline_euler" regression option.

Module neurons.models.wilson_cowan¶
Class WilsonCowanUnit¶
Normalised Wilson-Cowan excitatory/inhibitory population-rate model.
τ_e dE/dt = -E + S(w_ee·E - w_ei·I + I_ext) τ_i dI/dt = -I + S(w_ie·E - w_ii·I) S(x) = 1/(1 + exp(-a(x-θ))) - 1/(1 + exp(aθ))
This maintained reduction omits the original availability/refractory factors and an independent inhibitory external drive. It preserves the coupled E/I population structure and shifted sigmoid, and advances both continuous rates with fixed-step RK4.
- post_init()
- step(ext_input)
- Advance one finite excitatory-drive sample and return the E rate.
- simulate(n_steps, current, backend)
- Return atomic post-step E/I traces through one maintained backend.

The maintained production path advances the coupled (V, R) state with candidate-first RK4 and commits only finite candidates. Spike detection is a threshold event followed by Wilson-HR hard voltage reset.

The default is the 0.1 ms step stated in the paper; the pinned author-lab trial code uses 0.5 ms.
Notes¶
A call returns the firing rates computed from the pre-update state. The
caller-visible random path consumes two standard-normal samples per step.
:meth:step_with_gaussian_samples exposes the same update deterministically
for accelerator parity and source-oracle replay.

Function build_aer_interconnect(module_name, qgraph)¶
Generate weighted event-bus top-level interconnect.
The emitted datapath keeps the same population instances as the direct interconnect but routes spike-producing source populations through an address-event fan-out block. All active source spikes in a cycle contribute their signed fixed-point weights to every destination accumulator, so simultaneous events preserve the dense affine semantics of the NIR graph. External analogue inputs and analogue source populations remain direct fixed-point multiply-accumulate terms because they are not sparse events.
Parameters¶
module_name : str Top-level module name. qgraph : QuantisedGraph Quantised graph. data_width : int Fixed-point data width. fraction : int Fractional bits for analogue multiply downshift. bitstream_length : int SC-NIR bitstream length recorded in the generated top module. scnir_stream_count : int Number of semantic streams recorded in the SC-NIR document. scnir_source_module_count : int Number of materialised stochastic source modules. scnir_hierarchy : Sequence[SCNIRHierarchyInstance] Typed hierarchy boundaries instantiated by the network top. scnir_semantic_hierarchy_stream_ids : frozenset[str] Hierarchy stream identifiers that provide semantic connection weights.

- as_dict()
- Return deterministic JSON-ready external input metadata.
Class FoldedResourceMetrics¶
Architectural resource summary of a folded (time-multiplexed) interconnect.
Quantifies what the shared-datapath fold buys versus the direct interconnect's
one-module-instance-per-neuron unrolling: one processing element per distinct
neuron type is reused across every neuron of that type (a per-type PE pool), with
per-neuron state held in BRAM, at the cost of cycles_per_tick cycles to advance
the whole network by one timestep.
Attributes¶
neurons : int
Total neurons sharing the datapath across all folded populations.
state_vars_per_neuron : int
Widest per-neuron state-variable count across the folded types (the largest
BRAM word = state_vars_per_neuron × data width). Equal to the single type's
count for a homogeneous network.
pe_instances : int
Physical processing elements instantiated: one per distinct neuron type. A
single population, or several populations all of one type, share one PE.
shared_multipliers : int
Multipliers in the shared weighted fan-in, summed over external-source columns
across all populations and reused across each population's neurons. Spiking
fan-in (recurrent or inter-population) is spike-gated and uses none.
state_ram_bits : int
Total BRAM-backed neuron-state storage, in bits, summed over populations
(each population contributes neurons × its type's state-var count × data width).
cycles_per_tick : int
Clock cycles to advance the whole network by one timestep
(neurons process cycles + 1 commit cycle).
direct_neuron_instances : int
Neuron module instances the direct interconnect would unroll (= neurons);
the count the fold collapses to pe_instances.
populations : int
Number of folded populations sharing the one sequencer and the global spike bus.
param_rom_bits : int
Total per-neuron parameter-ROM storage, in bits, for heterogeneous populations
(each contributes neurons × its count of per-neuron-varying parameters × data
width). Zero for a network whose populations all have uniform parameters (the PE
bakes them). The parameter-space analogue of state_ram_bits.
- as_dict()
- Return a deterministic plain-
intmapping for manifests/JSON.
Class NetworkCompilationResult¶
All artefacts from a network-level FPGA compilation.
Attributes¶
neuron_modules : dict[str, str]
Mapping from neuron type to Verilog source.
weight_rom : str
Weight ROM Verilog source.
top_module : str
Top-level interconnect Verilog source.
module_name : str
Top-level module name.
total_neurons : int
Total neuron count.
total_synapses : int
Total synapse count.

Parameters¶
graph : NeuronGraph
Network description (from from_scnetwork()).
module_name : str
Top-level Verilog module name.
data_width : int
Fixed-point total width (16 for Q8.8, 32 for Q16.16).
fraction : int

SC-NIR bitstream length metadata propagated into compilation artefacts.
source_kind : {"lfsr", "sobol"}

FPGA target for resource estimation hints.
online_learning : Mapping[str, Mapping[str, Any]] | None
Optional validated per-weight-stream SC-NIR online-learning annotations,
keyed by deterministic stream id such as "conn.src_to_dst.weight".
interconnect : str | None
None (default) auto-selects direct (small) or AER (large) wiring;
"direct" forces direct; "folded" opts into the time-multiplexed
shared-datapath interconnect (one PE per neuron type + per-population BRAM
state, swept by a single sequencer), which supports the :func:_can_fold
subset: any number of populations with external-weighted, recurrent, or
inter-population spiking fan-in.
Returns¶

Raises¶
ValueError If the graph is empty or contains unsupported neuron types.
Module nir_bridge.fpga_connection_routing¶
Function validate_connection_routing(graph)¶
Validate connection shapes, external lanes, and delay vectors before lowering.
The SC-NIR conversion and all three interconnect emitters index connection
matrices by source column. Validating the matrix rank first converts malformed
direct NeuronGraph input into a stable ValueError instead of leaking an
IndexError from a downstream conversion step.
Parameters¶
graph : NeuronGraph Network graph whose connection layout will be lowered to RTL.
Raises¶
ValueError If a connection matrix, endpoint width, bias, threshold, or delay is inconsistent with its source and destination populations.
Module nir_bridge.fpga_direct_interconnect¶
Function build_direct_interconnect(module_name, qgraph)¶
Generate direct-wired per-neuron top-level interconnect.
Every neuron gets its own instance of the type-specific module. NIR affine weights are emitted explicitly in fixed-point arithmetic:
- external analogue inputs use
(input * weight) >>> fraction; - analogue source populations use
(v_out * weight) >>> fraction; - spiking source populations contribute their fixed-point weight on spikes and zero otherwise;
- all fan-in terms and biases accumulate in a widened signed accumulator before saturation back to the neuron input Q-format.
Parameters¶
module_name : str Top-level module name. qgraph : QuantisedGraph Quantised graph. data_width : int Fixed-point data width. fraction : int Fractional bits for fixed-point multiply downshift. bitstream_length : int SC-NIR bitstream length recorded in the generated top module. scnir_stream_count : int Number of semantic streams recorded in the SC-NIR document. scnir_source_module_count : int Number of materialised stochastic source modules. scnir_hierarchy : Sequence[SCNIRHierarchyInstance] Typed hierarchy boundaries instantiated by the network top. scnir_semantic_hierarchy_stream_ids : frozenset[str] Hierarchy stream identifiers that provide semantic connection weights.
Returns¶
str Verilog top-level module source.
Raises¶
ValueError If the graph or hierarchy metadata cannot be represented by the direct interconnect contract.
Module nir_bridge.fpga_folded_interconnect¶
Function can_fold(qgraph)¶
Return True if the graph is in the folded interconnect's supported subset.
The folded interconnect time-multiplexes any number of populations of supported neuron types over a per-type PE pool and one global spike bus. A graph folds when every population has an ODE template, every population's heterogeneous per-neuron parameters are datapath parameters the PE can carry on a port (streamed from a per-neuron parameter ROM — a parameter varying in something other than an ODE parameter cannot be streamed and falls back to the direct path), and every connection is one of:
- connection-less — neurons driven only by their own external
I_extlane; - external-weighted — fed by external (non-population) source columns;
- spiking fan-in — recurrent (self) or inter-population spikes from another
population, read from the prior-tick global spike bus, optionally delayed or
gated by a source/destination NIR
Thresholdtransform; - analogue fan-in — an analogue source population (
li/cuba_li/integrator, whose output is the membrane voltage), read from the prior-tick global voltage bus (optionally delayed via a voltage-bus history register) and multiplied (or threshold-gated) by the weight.
Connections may also carry a per-destination-neuron bias constant. Only a delayed external (non-population) source connection is not folded — a synaptic delay has registered semantics only from a neuron population — and falls back to the direct interconnect.
Parameters¶
qgraph : QuantisedGraph Quantised network graph to classify. data_width : int Fixed-point data width used to compare per-neuron parameters.
Returns¶
bool
True when the graph can use the shared-datapath interconnect.
Function folded_resource_metrics(qgraph)¶
Summarise the shared-datapath resources of a foldable graph.
Counts one PE per distinct neuron type (the per-type pool), the shared weighted-fan-in multipliers (external-source and analogue-voltage-source columns — spiking recurrent or inter-population fan-in is spike-gated and uses none), the BRAM state-word storage summed over populations, the per-neuron parameter-ROM storage for heterogeneous populations, the cycles-per-tick, and the direct-path instance count the fold collapses.
Parameters¶
qgraph : QuantisedGraph
A graph satisfying :func:can_fold.
data_width : int
Fixed-point data width (BRAM word sizing).
Returns¶
FoldedResourceMetrics The architectural fold summary.
Function build_folded_interconnect(module_name, qgraph)¶
Generate a time-multiplexed (folded) top plus its per-type datapath PE pool.
One combinational PE (:func:compile_to_datapath) per distinct neuron type and
one BRAM-backed state array per population are shared across every neuron: a
single sequencer steps one neuron per cycle, walking each population in turn,
reading the addressed neuron's packed state from its BRAM, driving the population's
PE with that state and the neuron's input current, and writing the next state back.
Spikes accumulate over a tick into a global accumulator and commit to a single
spike_bus in a dedicated cycle (tick_done pulses), so the bus is race-free
and stable for the whole next tick. Recurrent and inter-population spiking fan-in
read that prior-tick spike_bus at the source population's bit offset — the same
double-buffer the direct interconnect's registered spikes provide. An analogue
source population's membrane voltage is committed the same way to a global v_bus
(one DATA_WIDTH word per analogue source neuron), so analogue fan-in reads the
prior-tick voltage exactly like the direct path's registered v_out.
Restricted to the :func:can_fold subset. Returns
({neuron_module_key: pe_source}, top_module_source) with one PE source per
distinct neuron type, keyed "{neuron_type}_pe" for the compilation artefacts.
Parameters¶
module_name : str
Verilog module name for the folded network top.
qgraph : QuantisedGraph
Quantised graph accepted by :func:can_fold.
data_width : int
Fixed-point word width.
fraction : int
Number of fractional bits in each fixed-point word.
Returns¶
tuple[dict[str, str], str] Per-type processing-element sources and the folded top-level Verilog.
Raises¶
ValueError If the graph is outside the supported folded subset.
Module nir_bridge.fpga_neuron_rtl¶
Function build_neuron_module(neuron_type, pop)¶

data_width : int

fraction : int

Returns¶

Raises¶
ValueError If the neuron type or one of its parameters has no canonical FPGA template contract.
Module nir_bridge.fpga_scnir_hierarchy¶
Function resolve_hierarchy_weight_literals(document, qgraph)¶

- to_public_dict()
- Return a JSON-compatible behaviour profile.
Function derive_behavior_tags(observations)¶
Derive the behaviour tags from a model's sweep observations.
Pure and side-effect free, so the tag logic is testable without running any simulation. Excitability is read from the sign of the response (robust even for stochastic models); the firing-pattern tags are read only from reproducible observations, and are withheld entirely for a stochastic model.
Parameters¶
observations: The per-current observations, in any order. stochastic: Whether the model's spike train failed to reproduce at some drive.
Returns¶
tuple[str, ...] The validated, sorted behaviour tags. Empty when no current could be driven (an honest "no measured behaviour").
Function probe_model_behavior(name)¶
Probe one model across the current sweep and derive its behaviour tags.
Never raises for a model that cannot be driven: each failed drive is recorded as an error observation and the profile is still returned.
Function probe_all_models()¶
Probe every catalogue model and return a recordable evidence manifest.
The manifest is the source the fast catalogue gate compares descriptors
against: a per-model tag set plus the sweep configuration and digests, so a
committed behavior_tags field can be checked for equality with the
measurement without re-running any simulation.

parity-verified offline rather than timed live.
Function validate_submission(payload)¶
Return a list of schema/privacy violations; empty means the payload is OK.
Function store_contribution(payload, handle)¶
Validate and append a submission to the local databank (opt-in path).
Raises ValueError with the joined violations if the payload fails schema
or privacy validation, so an invalid or identifying submission never lands.
Function load_databank()¶
Return every stored contribution (already free of identifying fields).
Function databank_leaderboard()¶
Aggregate the databank into a per-CPU, per-backend speed-up leaderboard.

Parse IR text and emit synthesisable SystemVerilog.

Run Python float and Q8.8 fixed-point simulations side by side.
Module studio.dcls¶
Function probe_backends()¶
Report each backend's in-process status without ever crashing.
Each entry is {backend, available, live}: live is False for a
backend we decline to run in this process (Julia under torch), in which case
available reflects its declared support rather than a live probe.
Function dcls_benchmark()¶
Return the recorded multi-backend throughput benchmark, or None.
These are pre-measured numbers from benchmarks/results — a CPU-shielded
run on a known host — not a live timing, so the Studio reports honest,
reproducible figures with their measurement context rather than noisy
per-request samples. Backends are ordered fastest-measured-first; Python is
the 1x reference floor.
Function dcls_kernel_info()¶
Describe the DCLS-max kernel: provenance, fixed-point contract, evidence.
Function dcls_tent_profile(centre_q88, sigma_q88, n_taps)¶
Return the per-tap triangular gate profile of a learnable tent kernel.
Each delay tap t receives a Q8.8 gate from :func:tent_gate_q88; the
profile is what the learnable centre/sigma shape and what the synapse
convolves the spike taps against.
Function dcls_forward_parity(spikes, weights_q88, centre_q88, sigma_q88)¶
Run the contraction on every available backend and report the parity.
The Python floor is the reference; each accelerated backend must reproduce
its Q8.8 output bit-for-bit. The returned bit_exact flag is the evidence
that the learnable-delay kernel is hardware-faithful across the whole stack.
Module studio.evidence_classification¶
Function validate_studio_evidence_classification(value)¶

Returns¶
StudioEvidenceStatus The validated terminal evidence status.
Raises¶
ValueError
If value is not a supported terminal evidence status.
Module studio.model_catalogue¶
Class ModelMetadataError¶
Raised when Studio model metadata loading fails for a known model.
Function list_models()¶
Return declared metadata for every registered neuron model.
Each entry is built from the model's committed descriptor (family, category,
maturity, provenance, parameter and state counts). Models without a descriptor
fall back to code introspection with an inferred category. Results are
cached after the first call.
Function get_model_detail(name)¶
Return the full declared metadata view for a single model.
Function model_facets()¶
Return the catalogue facet taxonomy and counts for discovery UX.
Function model_documentation(name)¶
Return the rendered reference documentation for a model, or None.
The per-model reference page lives at docs/api/models/<module>.md; the
Studio serves its Markdown so the documentation is browsable inline next to
the live model rather than only in the built docs site.
Module studio.model_compile_configuration¶

Compile and compare real C-reference and RTL state traces cycle by cycle.
Module studio.model_scan¶
Class ModelScanEntry¶
Path-free firing-pattern classification for one Studio model.
A model that could not be driven by the scan's constant current carries the
error pattern and a non-empty error_type so the failure is visible in
the result rather than aborting the whole scan.
- is_error()
- True when this entry records a simulation failure.
- to_public_dict()
- Return a JSON-compatible model scan entry.
Class StudioModelScanManifest¶
Path-free metadata for one complete Studio model scan.
Parameters¶
current: Constant input current used for each model simulation. duration: Simulation duration used for each model scan run. model_count: Number of successfully classified models in the result. pattern_counts: Count of each detected firing-pattern label. input_sha256: SHA-256 digest of the scan configuration. result_sha256: SHA-256 digest of the returned model classifications. evidence_classification: Controlled evidence class for the scan workflow. status: Controlled terminal status for the scan workflow.
- to_public_dict()
- Return the JSON-compatible model scan metadata.
Function scan_all_models(current, duration)¶
Simulate every model at a given current and classify its firing pattern.
Results are cached per (current, duration) pair so a scan for one
configuration cannot be served as evidence for another configuration.
Module studio.model_simulate¶
Class RustStudioBackendUnavailable¶

Class RustStudioBackendError¶
Raised when the Studio Rust batch-simulation path fails at runtime.
Function simulate_model(name, param_overrides, dt, duration, current, protocol, frequency_hz, use_fast_path)¶
Simulate a named model. Uses Rust engine when model has default params.
Set use_fast_path=False to force the Python reference model and bypass the
Rust accelerator. The behaviour probe relies on this so its characterisation
is the canonical model's, independent of whether the Rust extension happens to
be loaded (the two backends can differ for models with an internal RNG).
Module studio.network¶
Function simulate_ei_network(n_exc, n_inh, w_ee, w_ei, w_ie, w_ii, p_conn, ext_rate, duration, dt)¶
Simulate a balanced E-I network. Uses Rust engine when available.

Function simulate_graph(graph)¶
Simulate a network graph using the E-I network backend.
Maps populations and projections to the existing E-I simulation. Only graphs with exactly 2 populations (1 exc + 1 inh) are currently supported; other topologies fail closed instead of being collapsed into an unfaithful surrogate.
Function graph_to_nir(graph)¶
Export network graph to NIR-compatible format.
Function nir_to_graph(nir_data)¶
Import NIR-compatible format to network graph.
Module studio.nir_compile¶

Returns¶
int
ceil(duration / dt) integration steps.

Return the timestep used to project a request's cost.
Parameters¶
dt:
Caller-supplied timestep in milliseconds, or None when the request
defers to the named model's default timestep.
Returns¶
float
dt when supplied, otherwise
:data:STUDIO_ANALYSIS_REFERENCE_TIMESTEP_MS. A supplied non-positive
dt is returned unchanged so the timestep gate rejects it.
Function evaluate_analysis_cost()¶
Project the cost of a request whose simulations share one duration/dt.
Parameters¶
simulation_count: Number of simulations the request drives. Must be positive. duration: Shared simulated time span in milliseconds. dt: Shared integration timestep in milliseconds.

Returns¶
AnalysisCost
Cost projection where each grid point is treated as one synchronous
unit of work and steps_per_simulation records the equation
evaluations performed at that point.
Raises¶
AnalysisBudgetError
If either count is non-positive. The "simulations" limit is used
because the grid point count is checked against the same synchronous
request fan-out ceiling as parameter sweeps.

Project the synchronous simulation cost of a Studio model scan.
Parameters¶
model_count:
Number of catalogue models the scan will simulate.
duration:
Shared simulated time span in milliseconds.
dt:
Timestep in milliseconds used for budget projection. Model-scan calls
currently defer to model defaults at execution time, so the route uses
:data:STUDIO_ANALYSIS_REFERENCE_TIMESTEP_MS for this projection.
Returns¶
AnalysisCost Cost projection where each catalogue model contributes one synchronous simulation.
Raises¶
AnalysisBudgetError
If model_count is non-positive ("simulations" limit) or the
timestep is invalid ("timestep" limit).

Walks the AST and rejects code containing known-dangerous patterns: filesystem mutation, process spawning, network access, code execution, and unrestricted imports.
Limitations: this is a static blocklist, not a sandbox. It catches common dangerous patterns but cannot prove semantic safety, model data flow, or reason about values assembled before screening. Do not use as a security boundary without additional sandboxing.
- verify_code_safety(source_code)
- Return whether
source_codepasses the static blocklist. - verify_logic_invariant(func, input_sample, expected_condition)
- Return whether a dynamic invariant holds for one input sample.
