mikegrad 0.2.0

A minimal autograd framework

mikegrad

A minimal autograd framework with some custom features.

Features

• Autograd engine: Automatic differentiation for gradient computation
• Backpropagation: Implementation from scratch
• Basic neural network components: Build your own neural networks
• Activation functions:
  • Sigmoid
  • Tanh
  • Softmax
  • ReLU
  • LeakyReLU
• Loss functions:
  • CrossEntropyLoss
  • Binary Cross-Entropy Loss (BCELoss)
  • Mean Squared Error (MSELoss)
• Optimizers:
  • SGD
  • Adam
  • AdamW
• Utility functions:
  • argmax: Find the index of the maximum value in a tensor
  • from_list: Convert a Python list of numerical values into a list of Value class instances
  • to_list: Convert a list of Value class instances back into a Python list of numerical values
  • from_numpy: Convert a NumPy array into a list of Value class instances
  • to_numpy: Convert a list of Value class instances back into a NumPy array
  • from_pandas: Convert a Pandas DataFrame into a list of Value class instances
  • one_hot_encode: Create one-hot encoded vectors from categorical data
• Example training:
  • Example training on California Housing dataset for regression (toy_classification.ipynb).
  • Example training on Breast Canser dataset for classification (toy_regression.ipynb).
  • Examples of Binary Classification, Multiclass Classification, Regression for demonstrating training (example.ipynb).
