Distributed GPU Cluster

Eldric runs on any GPU — from a single RTX 3090 to NVIDIA H100/H200 datacenter cards. Connect labs, datacenters, and remote researchers into one cluster that spans cities or continents. Workers register through the Edge TLS gateway over the internet, or use the built-in tunnel for NAT traversal — no VPN needed. Adding a node is one command: the worker auto-registers and is immediately available for inference.

xLSTM + Transformer Mixture Models

Train xLSTM on EEG/fMRI time-series for brain state classification, seizure prediction, and neural decoding. sLSTM handles temporal dynamics across seconds to hours; Transformer attention captures cross-region connectivity.

Architecture

Sepp Hochreiter's xLSTM extended with Transformer layers for domain-specific tasks.

  • sLSTM: exponential gating for long-range dependencies
  • mLSTM: matrix memory with covariance update
  • Transformer: cross-attention for multi-feature correlation
  • Mixture: xLSTM temporal + Transformer relational
