Both Julia and Scala people are trying to generalize numeric types. Julia approach can be found in the docs and issues on the compiler itself, and Scala approach is a library:

Dynamics of cortical dendritic membrane potential and spikes in freely behaving rats
Neural activity in vivo is primarily measured using extracellular somatic spikes, which provide limited information about neural computation. Hence, it is necessary to record from neuronal dendrites, which generate dendritic action potentials (DAP) and profoundly…

Beyond IEEE754 Floating Point: Next Generation Computer Arithmetic
A new data type
- Simpler hardware implementation from 2 to thousands of bits.
- Larger dynamic range, higher accuracy, better closure under arithmetic operations, and simpler exception-handling
- Unlike unum arithmetic, posits do not require interval-type mathematics or variable size operands, and they round if an answer is inexact, much the way floats do.
