nqxpack 0.1.1

Library to serialise objects arising from scientific and Machine Learning libraries, including NetKet.

NQXPack

A library to save and load objects coming from Scientific Machine Learning libraries, with a special attention to Neural Quantum States from NetKet.

Goals:

• Simple format, possible to hand-edit and inspect manually;
• Compatibility among Python version;
• Allows to load Neural Networks with a single load command;

Usage

Install with

uv add git+https://github.com/NeuralQXLab/nqxpack.git

or (but seriously, stop using pip and start using uv)

pip install git+https://github.com/NeuralQXLab/nqxpack.git

With flax.linen

Save a dictionary containing the model and the parameters.

import nqxpack
import jax
from flax import linen as nn

model = nn.Sequential(
    nn.Dense(features=2),
    nn.gelu,
    nn.Dense(features=1),
    jax.numpy.squeeze,
)

variables = model.init(jax.random.key(1), jax.numpy.ones((2,4)))

nqxpack.save({'model':model, 'variables':variables}, "mymodel.nk")

loaded_dict = nqxpack.load("mymodel.nk")
loaded_model, loaded_variables = loaded_dict['model'], loaded_dict['variables']

With NetKet

import nqxpack
import netket as nk

hi = nk.hilbert.Spin(0.5, 10)
operator = nk.operator.spin.sigmax(nqs_state.hilbert, 1)

nqs_state = nk.vqs.MCState(nk.sampler.MetropolisLocal(hi), nk.models.RBM(alpha=4))
# print expectation value:
nqs_state.expect(operator)

nqxpack.save(nqs_state, "nqs_state.nk")
nqs_state_loaded = nqxpack.load("nqs_state.nk")

nqs_state_loaded.expect(operator)

The format

The format is a single zip file. You can decompress it yourself and look into it.
