In a few dozen locations, data type float is used in C++ code in NEST, including NEST kernel. All these cases are likely glitches induced by too much Python programming and should be corrected to double. Also, any casts should be written out as explicit static casts, i.e., static_cast< double >( x ) instead of (double) x according to Bjarne Stroustrup.
What about coding a Spiking Neural Network using an automatic differentiation framework? In SNNs, there is a time axis and the neural network sees data throughout time, and activation functions are instead spikes that are raised past a certain pre-activation threshold. Pre-activation values constantly fades if neurons aren't excited enough.
For certain reasons, the subsurface scattering shader was removed from the shading drop down menu in the past. The shader is ready, but must be re-integrated again.
