               .map(() => new Worker('neural-worker.js'));
           
           const chunks = this.splitInputs(inputs);
           const results = await Promise.all(
               chunks.map((chunk, i) => workers[i].process(chunk))
           );
           
           return this.mergeResults(results);
       }
   
       // GPU acceleration support

                   shaderPath: 'neural-compute.glsl',
                   precision: 'highp'
               });
               return true;
           }
           return false;

           });
       }

               framework: 'jest',
               coverage: true,
               reporters: ['junit', 'html']
           });
       }
