This project explores how a grid of simple, communicating 'cells' can learn to perform complex computational tasks, much like a living system grows and organizes itself. It takes a starting pattern or data matrix and processes it locally across the grid to produce a desired output, like a copied matrix or a matrix product. This is for researchers and engineers exploring novel, highly parallel computing architectures.

138 stars. No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you are researching distributed computing, self-organizing systems, or unconventional hardware architectures that require local communication and parallel processing.

Not ideal if you are looking for a ready-to-use library for standard data processing or machine learning tasks on conventional hardware.
