SKNet

Introduction

SKNet is a new type of neural network that is simple in structure but complex in neuron. Each of its neuron is a traditional estimator such as SVM, RF, etc.

Fetaures

We think that such a network has many applicable scenarios.

• We don't have enough samples to train neural networks.
• We hope to improve the accuracy of the model by means of emsemble.
• We hope to learn some new features.
• We want to save a lot of parameter adjustment time while getting a stable and good model.

Installation

pip install sknet
