About

Neuronika is a machine learning framework written in pure Rust, built with a focus on ease of use, fast prototyping and performance.

Dynamic neural networks and auto-differentiation
At the core of Neuronika lies a mechanism called reverse-mode automatic differentiation, that allows you to define dynamically changing neural networks with very low effort and no overhead by using a lean, fully imperative and define by run API.

The power of Rust
The Rust language allows for an intuitive, light and easy to use interface while achieving incredible performance. There's no need for a FFI, everything happens in front of your eyes.
Crate Feature Flags
cudaEnables gpu accelerated primitives.
You can use the following crate feature flags to configure the ndarray backend:
serializeEnables serialization support forserde1.x.blasEnables transparent BLAS support for matrix multiplication, which usesblas-srcfor pluggable backend and needs to be configured separately. See here for more informations.matrixmultiply-threadingEnables thethreadingfeature in thematrixmultiplypackage.

Contributing
We appreciate and welcome all contributions. If you are planning to contribute back bug-fixes, please do so without any further discussion.
If you plan to contribute new features, utility functions, or extensions to the framework, please first open a discussion and discuss the feature with us. Sending a PR without discussion might end up resulting in a rejected PR because we might be taking the project in a different direction than you might be aware of.
To learn more about making a contribution to Neuronika, please see our contribution page.
Getting Help
First, see if the answer to your question can be found in the API documentation. If the answer is not there, please ask for help by opening a discussion with the question. We'll be glad to help you.
Project Status
Neuronika is very young and rapidly evolving, we are continuously developing the project and breaking changes are expected during transitions from version to version. We adopt the newest stable Rust's features if we need them.

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 1,083 stars, 56 forks and 2 contributors. 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 10 Oct 2022, 1491 days ago. That reaches the 365 days the rules expect, so the project is dormant. Dormancy rule
- The oldest outside issue waits 1462 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.
