CORTEXIA

Computational Orchestration for Reality Transformation: EXtended Intelligence Architecture

A complete Rust framework for computational neuroscience and consciousness research.

Overview

CORTEXIA is a meta-framework that unifies six production-grade Rust libraries for neuroscience research:

• hodgkin-huxley - Biophysical neuron models
• iit - Integrated Information Theory 3.0
• tda - Topological Data Analysis for neural networks
• synapse-models - Synaptic dynamics and plasticity
• neural-dynamics - Large-scale network simulation

Quick Start

Add to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
cortexia = "0.1.0"

Example

use cortexia::prelude::*;

fn main() {
    // Create a Hodgkin-Huxley neuron
    let mut neuron = HodgkinHuxleyNeuron::new();

    // Calculate integrated information (Phi)
    let mut iit_system = IITSystem::new(3);
    iit_system.set_state(vec![1, 0, 1]).unwrap();
    let phi_result = iit_system.calculate_phi().unwrap();
    println!("Φ = {}", phi_result.phi);

    // Build a neural network
    let network = NetworkBuilder::new()
        .populations(2, 100)
        .build();
}
