Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

A Simulated Annealing FPGA Placer in Rust
Yes, see "DREAMPlace: DREAMPlace: Deep Learning Toolkit-Enabled GPU Acceleration for Modern VLSI Placement".[1] The technique in particular rather reformulates VLSI placement in terms of a non-linear optimization problem. Which is how ML frameworks (broadly) work, optimizing approximations to high-dimensional non-linear functions. So it's not like, shoving the netlist it into an LLM or an existing network or anything.
Note that DREAMPlace is a global placer; it also comes with a detail placer but global placement is what it is targeted at. I don't know of an appropriate research analogue for the routing phase of the problem that follows placing, but maybe someone else does.

Nvidia: GPUs can do better chip design in a few days than 10 man year
Huge part of why OpenROAD (and as this article.indicates, nvidia) are so focused on machine learning! Because the nitty gritty of chip design has abundant gnarly problems requiring deep deep expertise. Deploying software engineers is hard. But building ml is kind of our bag!
There's another nice upstart opensource project with even fancier ml placememt systems that spawned recently out of the openroad world, dreamplace, https://github.com/limbo018/DREAMPlace
This is just gonna get more & more biased against a couple super smart engineers who we've deeply entrusted to divine inner the workings of the chips on, & become increasingly a set of better modelled problems that we can machine learningly optimize.

AMD Funded a Drop-In CUDA Implementation Built on ROCm: It's Open-Source
ncnn uses Vulkan for GPU acceleration, I've seen it used in a few projects to get AMD hardware support.

Draw Things, Stable Diffusion in your pocket, 100% offline and free
Yes, Android devices tend to have bigger RAMs, making running 1024x1024 possible (this is not possible at all on iPhones, which could peak around 5GiB memory with my current implementation, some serious engineering required to bring that down on iPhone devices). The problem is I am not sure about speed. I would likely switch to NCNN (https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn) as the backend which have a decent Vulkan computing kernel support. It is definitely a possibility and there is a path to do that.
