Long expected :slight_smile: [Introducing Nx - José Valim | Lambda Days 2021]

I have worked with Python for a few years and I can absolutely say this is not a good idea: $ # DON'T DO THIS $ cd /usr/bin $ sudo ln -s python3 python # :( You should instead make a virtual environment and associate it with whatever directory you occupy while playing with nx. For example, here i…

I am not a python guy, I will follow your advice :slight_smile: Thanks for reporting.

It took 7 hours for EXLA to compile on my laptop…

Ouch.. that hurts. I had to go through at least 7 attempts before successfully compiling EXLA, each time with different errors. As last hope I kept insisting on mix compile and then after three rounds of it I could get it compiled. I’m on Ubuntu 20.04, the successfull compilation attempt used bazel…

Hi, If you all can report to me some of your compilation problems and troubleshoot steps, I can put together a comprehensive guide for building EXLA so there are no more issues. Also please note that we fortunately no longer have the NumPy dependency :slight_smile:

Is there a good article about the mechanisms used in the demo? Why do we use dot, why is the loss function implemented that way, why the grad is implemented that way, etc. And why do we add a single hidden layer, and why we add it, etc. I can find a lot of tutorials that explains how to code it, j…

Neural Networks and Deep Learning by Michael Nielsen is a good primer. Chapter 1 (Using neural nets to recognize handwritten digits) walks through the specific use case on the MNIST dataset (with code near the bottom of the page).

If you like math and don’t mind reading a textbook: Deep Learning Book Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning If you don’t like math and you’d rather learn to the programming concepts: Dive into Deep Learning Deep Learning in Python Or if you’re willing to wait we can put some resources out …

Thank you @joddm this look perfect. @seanmor5 Thank you for the links, I will look into it. I am absolutely willing to wait for resources but I am not sure I understand your comment correctly. I’ve coded along with José while watching the video (with a two hours pause to compile XLA before the end …

I’ll add one more book recommendation. I gave it a quick read-through last year and it helps with the overall concepts. I need to go back through it and work examples to get them to stick in my brain now. [image] Programming Machine Learning A zero-to-hero machine learning tutorial for …

Yes.

It depends. Tensors are either unsigned integers, signed integers, or floating points.

I am not sure how this would fit the multi-dimensional array paradigm at the moment.
