NEWS: see https://github.com/emer/emergent for our new reboot of emergent in Go and Python
Also, https://github.com/emer/cemer is the new github home for this C++ version of emergent -- this server will be decommissioned at some point..
emergent is a comprehensive neural network simulator that enables the creation and analysis of complex, sophisticated models of the brain in the world; features:
- Full browser and 3D GUI for constructing, visualizing, & interacting.
- Accessible to non-programmers e.g., for teaching.
- But also highly productive for experts, used daily in scientific research.
- Powerful C++ scripting language, css (not that css), GUI Programming environment (IDE) -- transparent access to C++.
- Rich, dynamic, embodied environments for training networks:
- DataTable for network inputs and data processing, analysis, generation (filtering, grouping, sorting, dimensionality reduction, graphing, etc).
- Newtonian physics simulator for robotics simulations, e.g., a biophysically realistic human arm, and realistic embodied, dynamic vision.
- Sensory filtering for vision and audition, and vocal-tract speech.
- In use for decades, for hundreds of scientific publications from a variety of different labs. Detailed models of the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, basal ganglia, visual cortex, cerebellum, etc available (also see textbook).
- Direct descendant of PDP (1986) and PDP++ (1995).
