- pointlessone 4y agoI'm not an ML expert so can't tell how good any of these are but there seem to be enough ML-related stuff for Ruby. There are a few tensorflow bindings for Ruby. There's torch.rb. There's numo, kinda like numpy. SciRuby lists a bunch of AI-related/numeric gems. What I'm trying to say is there's no reason to expect Python parity because there's Python and no reason to divert the effort but ML is not quite non-existent in Ruby. Start using it and be the change you want to see in the world.
- revskill 4y agoI don't want to touch Python, and that's the problem. So it's just a wish. But even if i love Python, the point is still: Make stronger ML support for Ruby.
- MegaSec 4y agoMaybe you should try Julia? That might still be too much like Python. https://julialang.org/ https://julialang.org/
- marc 4y agoThere are more than you might realize. Some good ones listed here: https://ankane.org/new-ml-gems https://ankane.org/new-ml-gems https://ankane.org/more-ml-gems https://ankane.org/more-ml-gems
- yebyen 4y agoDid you find these here on HN? This is the gem of the day for me I hadn't seen either of these, and I didn't think I was interested in ML, until I got to the Natural Language Processing section, this is a great article! Happy Ruby Upgrade Day!
- Lio 4y agoOne useful option is PostresML[1]. If it supports what you need it’s an easy solution for ruby users. 1. https://postgresml.org/ https://postgresml.org/
