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.

Don't Mess with Backprop: Doubts about Biologically Plausible Deep Learning
Deep Learning has nothing to do with biophysical neuron simulation, even though there is a confusing overloading of the term "neural network". A good introduction to deep learning is this chapter: https://mlstory.org/deep.html.
STDP falls under biophysical models of neuron simulation, where we try to faithfully reproduce biophysics of brain simulation (trivia: I started my undergrad in computational neuroscience and implemented STDP several times [1, 2, 3]). STDP is a learning mechanism, but it has not demonstrated the ability to learn as powerful models as DNN.
