Pigreads: The Python-integrated GPU-enabled reaction-diffusion solver using OpenCL for cardiac electrophysiology and other applications
Abstract
Pigreads is a streamlined Python module for efficient numerical solution of reaction-diffusion systems on graphics cards (GPU), with CPU fallback. It exposes a simple and straight-forward NumPy-compatible API. Users may employ built-in models – including electrophysiology examples – or supply custom reaction terms. Supported features include 0D-3D uniform Cartesian grids, no-flux and periodic boundary conditions, anisotropic diffusion, spatially varying diffusion and reaction, and localised source terms. The project is open-source, tested, documented, and distributed with examples and tutorials.
