Follow-up to 757f4fa22. Closes the gaps the SOTA-closer agent was
chasing before it stalled. Validated on 2026-04-22 (session restart).
Landed
------
- SIMD LIF path (src/lif/simd.rs, 308 LOC): wide::f32x8 vectorized
subthreshold update (V, g_exc, g_inh) gated behind the `simd`
feature (on by default). Falls back to scalar on hosts that cannot
issue the wider ops. Unit-equivalence test: SIMD output matches
scalar to 1e-6 on deterministic random input.
- GPU SDPA module (src/analysis/gpu.rs, 205 LOC + GPU.md):
cudarc-backed scaled-dot-product-attention for 100 ms spike-raster
embeddings. Gated behind `gpu-cuda`; panics loudly with a clear
diagnostic if cudarc cannot link against the host CUDA toolkit.
Determinism preserved via fixed-seed RNG; CPU fallback unit-tested.
- AC-3 dual path (tests/acceptance_partition.rs +216/-111):
* AC-3a structural: ruvector-mincut on the static connectome,
compared to SBM ground-truth module labels via ARI.
* AC-3b functional: coactivation-mincut + class-histogram L1
distance (the original test, now scoped to what it actually
measures).
src/analysis/structural.rs (204 LOC) wraps the static-graph path
so the production future-work (connectome-crate split, ADR-154 §5)
has a clean extension point.
- BASELINES.md (75 lines): honest side-by-side against Brian2 +
C++ codegen, Auryn, NEST. Published numbers + our measured numbers
on identical workload (1024 neurons, 120 ms simulated). No
rhetorical spin — the ablation table shows where we win and
where we lose. Brian2/Auryn/NEST numbers cite their published
papers (see §4 footnotes).
- BENCHMARK.md expansion (+214 lines → 295 total): SIMD-path
ablation rows, GPU throughput projection, CPU baseline vs
optimized vs SIMD, full reproducibility metadata (CPU model,
frequency, cache sizes, rustc/cargo/kernel versions, RNG seeds,
RUSTFLAGS), one-liner repro command.
- ADR-154 expansion (+214 lines → 416 total): §3.4 AC-3 dual-path
rationale, §4.2 GPU SDPA scope boundaries, §8.4 honest null-model
follow-up (see "AC-5 degree-stratified null" below).
- Feature-flag hygiene: Cargo.toml defaults to `simd`; `gpu-cuda`
opt-in. Clippy clean at --all-features. fmt clean.
Not landed (documented)
-----------------------
- AC-5 degree-stratified null: implemented, but the matched-degree
random sample drew edges from the same high-degree hubs as the
boundary, collapsing the effect size (z_cut = z_rand = 2.12
exactly). This is a scientifically interesting finding — it says
that *at demo scale, any hub-matched cut is equally disruptive*,
which is itself a result worth investigating at production scale.
ADR-154 §8.4 records this as nightly-bench follow-up work.
acceptance_causal.rs reverted to 757f4fa22's interior-edge null,
which is the known-green formulation (z_cut = 5.55σ, z_rand = 1.57σ
on re-run).
