About
Bindings for CNTK library
Simple low level bindings for CNTK library from Microsoft.
Status
Currently exploring ways how to interact with C++ API nicely from Rust. Expect a lot of breaking changes.
Build scripts are not ready yet, might not work outside of 64bit linux.
Goals
- Ability to train all reasonable architectures
- No memory leaks
- Reasonable ease of use
Nongoals
- Idiomatic Rust everywhere
- Super good ergonomics
- Avoiding all unnecessary copies
Building and installing
You need to have CNTK-2.3 installed and paths to includes and library files in relevant enviroment variables (cntk activate scripts does this well). You also need g++-4.8 installed (because CNTK uses it to compile things).
Example usage
See examples folder.
Other limitations
Only works with single precision (f32 in Rust, float in C++) types. Only works with dense representations of vectors/matrices/tensors. Only works with ASCII strings for variable names and filenames.

What works
- Passing data in and out of computation.
- Backpropagation.
- Training fully connected feedforward, convolutional and recurrent network.
- Saving and loading the model.
- Code for most operations. - Almost all, except couple of helpers.
- Demo of seq2seq model training.
- Turning c++ exception into rust panics (most of the time).
- Interop with NDArray library.
Planned in future
- GPU.
- Better docs.
- Finish all operations.
- Better build scripts.
- Figure out whether we want NDArrayView or go directly from Rust data to Value and back.
- Builder pattern where appropriate (Variable?).

Compare with similar projects
Order: strongest tier first, then most downloads, then name, with unmeasured values last. A library counts downloads over 30 days. An app counts binary downloads per release. An app with none counts its crate downloads over 30 days. ML Rust runs this catalogue, so its closest project always gets a row.

Why ListedNo archive, New or Featured rule places it, so it is Listed.
What it lacks for Featured
- It has 0 active dependents and 0 new dependents in 365 days. Featured needs 11 active dependents or 9 new dependents in 365 days. The repository route reads 21 stars, 0 forks and 1 contributor. It needs 4,539 stars, 434 forks and 79 contributors together.
- The project is dormant and not finished. Dormancy rule
What else the check found
- The last activity is on 4 Mar 2018, 3172 days ago. That reaches the 365 days the rules expect, so the project is dormant. Dormancy rule
- The oldest outside issue waits 2766 days for a reply, past the limit of 270. No maintainer replied in 365 days. Rot signals rule
Not measured: Latest release fails cargo check.
Check notes
- the repo manifest Cargo.toml declares the crate, and no release commit proves the link
Exact rules: Listed, Featured library. The check on applied thresholds version 9.
