Locally Competitive Algorithm written in Python using various packages.

Current implementations include:

• LCApython: Pure python+numpy. Requires numpy.
• LCAcythonv (float64 only): Cython with minibatch vectorization. Requires numpy, cython.
• LCAfortan (float64 only): Fortran 90 with python wrapper. Requires f2py.
• LCAnumbaprog(float32 only): NumbaPro GPU implementation. Requires numbapro.

Cython based version can be compiled using the command:

python setup.py build_ext --inplace

in the LCAcythonv folder.

The Fortran based version can be compiled using the command:

f2py -c -m lca lca.f90

in the LCAfortran folder.

To run tests, do:

nosetests

from the base directory.
