I have been working and thinking about data and ML models for many years and this is probably the most concise and lucid summary of a post NN philosophy I have heard so far. It also resonates with me. Thanks for sharing.

Unlike some of those top comments, I actually like your curation a lot. Prefer it to The Economist, New York Book Review, and the other sites ppl linked in the comments. Good job! I know you have an RSS feed, and the crowd here probably is

I was thinking along those lines in the first half of my twenties. Now in the second half I feel lucky that I found a topic that I am going deep on and I am using that to go wide in some other connected areas. In hindsight there was some ti

Quick question: What's the reason for making "Transform" part of the Feature Store definition. I've been evaluating a couple of feature stores (incl. Tecton and Feast - great job by the way willempienaar) and I'm wo

Hearing friends talking about flaking, I would say it is a very common theme. I would also think, that you may not want to meet up with that person, because either not in the same city, or because you may match with a lot of different peopl

Good question! Could see that a conversation with that person may go very stale very quickly, but may have some other benefits? - Great reading recommendations - Great proof-of-competence like a 'badge' or 'degree' when

I haven't tried Mixnode yet, but the way I understand it, it lets you query websites and retrieve their HTML content that you can then parse - without you having to crawl the site. Looking at their Github, they seem to utilize WARC, so

I am wondering if the technique described in this Nature publication from yesterday [1] to potentially operate quantum computers at room temperature, could be used for the atomic storage as well. Does anyone know? [1]: http://www

Yes, we had trouble to attract the right community and convert the stars into recurrent contributions, as there was less overlap between the Rust and the general ML community than we anticipated. This bothered us a lot and played a role in

We think it is more beneficial for collaboration if we stick to the common naming of layers, functions and concepts than using metaphors. We provided two links, which help to get you started with that. But with Leaf it becomes very easy to

I think CNTK and Tensorflow and Theano, too, have a declarative approach, representing the computation via a computational graph. Which in my opinion is beneficial for research. But for a hacker or a software developer who wants to build an

Well, it has a bias towards NN and deep learning for now, as this was our initial focus for the proof of concept, but the architecture of Layers and Solvers should allow it to express any machine learning concept/algorithm. We are actu

We would love to have them and compare their performance with recurrent layers of other frameworks[1]. There exists an issue for the implementation of recurrent layers in Leaf (#73)[2]. [1]: http://autumnai.com/deep-learning

by mjhirn 11y ago
We would love to test that and release the performance on Deep Learning Benchmarks[1] or convnet-benchmarks[2]. But so far no convolution/NN-related OpenCl kernels are linked[3], although it might be quite easy, if the kernels exist. [

There is Leaf[1], the Hacker's Machine Learning Framework, which has GPU (CUDA, OpenCL) support for Machine Learning in Rust. James linked to it in the community section of his post, at the end. [1]: https://github.com/

Great input, thank you so much for the links. I will try to get them to work and publish the results. Same with Keras and LSTMs, very curious to see those.

Great, I will let you know. Looking forward to the benches.

by mjhirn 11y ago
We would love to include those, but we didn't find the implementation for the tested models for Theano, yet. Do you have link? You can also submit your own Benchmarks via PR, if you'd like to.

You mean, comparing the performance after training a model?

I just patched the link on the landing page to the repo [1] and updated benchmarks for Leaf 0.2 + cuDNN 4 for Overfeat and VGG. But I couldn't get Torch and Tensorflow running with cuDNN 4, yet. [1]: https://github.com/
