Fly Brain (multi-backend benchmark)
@TheOneeeeee
Answers a question most projects leave unasked: which simulator should you run a whole-brain connectome model on? It runs the same leaky integrate-and-fire model of the FlyWire brain across Brian2, Brian2CUDA, PyTorch, NEST GPU and GeNN, sweeping durations from 0.1 to 1000 seconds and 1 to 32 trials, with optogenetic-style activation and silencing as the manipulations. The README also notes a real packaging constraint, that Brian2GeNN pins an older Brian2 and so needs its own environment. A pygame foraging demo on a roughly 10,700-neuron subgraph sits on top of the same code.
