Score: 4.8/10 (Innovation: 4, Technical: 6, Documentation: 5, Utility: 4)

MLPico is a header-only ANSI C library implementing a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) with a 2-slot ring buffer for efficient feedforward inference. It's interesting for its focus on ultra-lightweight deployment on constrained systems like AVR microcontrollers and Arduino, with support for integer quantization and PROGMEM. However, it is a niche, incremental take on existing ML inference approaches.

Target audience: embedded developers
