muffnn 1.1.2

Multilayer Feed-Forward Neural Network (MuFFNN) models with TensorFlow and scikit-learn

# Introduction

This project provides multilayer perceptron predictive models, implemented
using [TensorFlow](https://www.tensorflow.org/) and following the
[scikit-learn](http://scikit-learn.org)
[Predictor API](http://scikit-learn.org/stable/developers/contributing.html#apis-of-scikit-learn-objects).

# Installation

Installation with `pip` is recommended:

```bash
pip install muffnn
```

You can also create a `conda` environment:

```bash
conda env create -f environment.yml
source activate muffnn
pip install muffnn
```

Google provides TensorFlow pip wheels for different OSs and architectures.
See [this page](https://www.tensorflow.org/install/) for more details.

For development, a few additional dependencies are needed:

```bash
conda install flake8 pytest nose
```

# Usage

To use the code, import one of the predictor classes and use it as you would
other predictors such as `LogisticRegression`. An example:

```python
from muffnn import MLPClassifier

X, y = load_some_data()

mlp = MLPClassifier()
mlp.fit(X, y)

X_new = load_some_unlabeled_data()
y_pred = mlp.predict(X_new)
```
