Selected Neuro-Simulators and Tools

BrainVoyager QX - a powerful neuroimaging software package. It started as a tool for the analysis of anatomical and functional MRI data sets but has evolved over the years into a multi-modal analysis tool for fMRI, DTI, TMS, EEG and MEG data. Using cross-platform C++ code for all aspects of the program, BrainVoyager QX provides a native and responsive user interface and powerful computational routines on all supported platforms.
CMU Sphinx - a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer released under BSD style license. It is also a collection of open source tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems.
GATE (general architecture for text engineering) - active research tool for text and content extraction as well all other types of computational task involving human language. GATE excels at text analysis of all shapes and sizes.
Festival - offers a general framework for building multi-lingual speech synthesis systems as well as including examples of various modules. As a whole it offers full text to speech through a number APIs: from shell level, though a Scheme command interpreter, as a C++ library, from Java, and an Emacs interface. Festival and the speech tools are distributed under an X11-type licence allowing unrestricted commercial and non-commercial use alike.
LENS (The light, efficient neural network simulator) - an efficient, yet flexible, neural network simulator that runs on a variety of platforms. It can handle large, complex simulations, but is also reasonably easy for novices to operate. The current version was maintained for several years at Carnegie Mellon's Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition, and is now maintained by the Stanford Center for Mind, Brain and Computation.
