**LAMINR** (**L**earning and **A**ligning **M**anifolds of Single-Neuron Invariances using **I**mplicit **N**eural **R**epresentations) enables the **systematic discovery and alignment of invariance manifolds** in stimulus space for visual sensory neurons, providing a principled way to characterize and compare neuronal invariances at the **population level**, independent of nuisance receptive field properties such as position, size, and orientation.

### 🚀 Highlights

- **Continuous Invariance Manifold Learning:** Identifies the full space of stimuli that elicit near-maximal responses from a neuron.
- **Alignment Across Neurons:** Learns transformations that align invariance manifolds across neurons, revealing shared invariance properties.
- **Functional Clustering:** Enables clustering neurons into distinct functional types based on their invariance properties.
- **Model-Agnostic:** Can be applied to any robust response-predicting model of biological neurons.

## 🛠 Installation

You can install LAMINR using one of the following methods:

### 1️⃣ Using `pip`
```bash
pip install laminr
```

### 2️⃣ Via GitHub (Latest Version)
```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/sinzlab/laminr.git
```

## 🔥 Quick Start

Here's a simple example of how to use **LAMINR** to learn and align invariance manifolds.

[![Open in Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://colab.research.google.com/github/sinzlab/laminr/blob/main/examples/laminr_quick_start.ipynb)


```python
from laminr import neuron_models, get_mei_dict, InvarianceManifold

device = "cuda"
input_shape = [1, 100, 100]  # (channels, height, width)

# Load the trained neuron model
model = neuron_models.simulated("demo1", img_res=input_shape[1:]).to(device)

# Generate MEIs (Maximally Exciting Inputs)
image_constraints = {
    "pixel_value_lower_bound": -1.0,
    "pixel_value_upper_bound": 1.0,
    "required_img_norm": 1.0,
}
meis_dict = get_mei_dict(model, input_shape, **image_constraints)

# Initialize the invariance manifold pipeline
inv_manifold = InvarianceManifold(model, meis_dict, **image_constraints)

# Learn invariance manifold for neuron 0 (template)
template_idx = 0
template_imgs, template_activations = inv_manifold.learn(template_idx)

# Align the template to neurons 1 and 2
target_idxs = [1, 2]
aligned_imgs, aligned_activations = inv_manifold.match(target_idxs)
```

## 🐳 Running with Docker
We have provided a Dockerfile for building an image with LAMINR pre-installed. Ensure that both **`docker`** and **`docker-compose`** are installed on your system. 

Follow the steps below to run **LAMINR** inside a Docker container with **Jupyter Lab**.

**1. Clone the repository and navigate to the project directory:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/sinzlab/laminr.git
cd laminr
```

**2. Run the following command inside the directory:**
```bash
docker compose run -p 10101:8888 examples
```
This command:
- **Builds the Docker image** and creates a container.
- **Exposes Jupyter Lab** on port **10101**.

**3. Access Jupyter Lab:**
Jupyter Lab will launch in the **examples folder**, which you can open in your browser via
[localhost:10101](http://localhost:10101) (the token can be found in the terminal logs).
