Description: This package realizes general hypercomplex algebras neural networks. Algebras are realized by Algebra module. Dense and Convolutional (1D, 2D, 3D) hypercomplex layers are included. The package works with:

• Keras + TensorFlow (Dense, Convolutional 1D, Convolutional 2D, Convolutional 3D)

• Keras + PyTorch (Dense, Convolutional 2D - experimental implementations with TensorFlow channels alignment and PyTorch data alignment)

Package also contains:

• examples - directory contains Jupyter Notebooks illustrating some example usage of classes

• Makefile - simple makefile to run some basic tests and to generate documentation

Usage: See the examples directory on Github for Jupyter Notebooks illustrating the usage or the manuscript: Agnieszka Niemczynowicz, Radosław Antoni Kycia, KHNNs: hypercomplex neural networks computations via Keras using TensorFlow and PyTorch, arXiv:2407.00452 [cs.LG] for detailed description.

Documentation: Additional examples are in [examples directory]((https://github.com/rkycia/HypercomplexKeras/tree/main/examples). You can also see the examples in the manuscript Agnieszka Niemczynowicz, Radosław Antoni Kycia, KHNNs: hypercomplex neural networks computations via Keras using TensorFlow and PyTorch, arXiv:2407.00452 [cs.LG]. You can create HTML documentation by running 'make generate_doc'. The HTML files are in doc directory that will be automatically created.
