Contributing & Help

Contributing & Help

If you need help, please ask on the Julia forum, the slack (channel #machine-learning), or Flux's Gitter.

Right now, the best way to help out is to try out the examples and report any issues or missing features as you find them. The second best way is to help us spread the word, perhaps by starring the repo.

If you're interested in hacking on Flux, most of the code is pretty straightforward. Adding new layer definitions or cost functions is simple using the Flux DSL itself, and things like data utilities and training processes are all plain Julia code.

If you get stuck or need anything, let us know!

One-Hot Encoding

One-Hot Encoding

It's common to encode categorical variables (like true, false or cat, dog) in "one-of-k" or "one-hot" form. Flux provides the onehot function to make this easy.

Flux: The Julia Machine Learning Library
Flux is a library for machine learning. It comes "batteries-included" with many useful tools built in, but also lets you use the full power of the Julia language where you need it. The whole stack is implemented in clean Julia code (right down to the GPU kernels) and any part can be tweaked to your liking.
Installation
Install Julia 0.6.0 or later, if you haven't already.
Pkg.add("Flux")

Start with the basics. The model zoo is also a good starting point for many common kinds of models.

 m(5) == 26
 
 m = Chain(Dense(10, 5), Dense(5, 2))

Chain also supports indexing and slicing, e.g. m[2] or m[1:end-1]. m[1:3](x) will calculate the output of the first three layers.

Flux.Dense — Type.
Dense(in::Integer, out::Integer, σ = identity)
Creates a traditional Dense layer with parameters W and b.
y = σ.(W * x .+ b)
The input x must be a vector of length in, or a batch of vectors represented as an in × N matrix. The out y will be a vector or batch of length in.

Recurrence
Recurrent Models
Recurrent Cells
In the simple feedforward case, our model m is a simple function from various inputs xᵢ to predictions yᵢ. (For example, each x might be an MNIST digit and each y a digit label.) Each prediction is completely independent of any others, and using the same x will always produce the same y.
y₁ = f(x₁)

Recurrent networks introduce a hidden state that gets carried over each time we run the model. The model now takes the old h as an input, and produces a new h as output, each time we run it.

  • A collection of data points that will be provided to the loss function.
  • An optimiser that will update the model parameters appropriately.

+# Model loss function
 loss(x, y) = Flux.mse(m(x), y)
The loss will almost always be defined in terms of some cost function that measures the distance of the prediction m(x) from the target y. Flux has several of these built in, like mse for mean squared error or logloss for cross entropy loss, but you can calculate it however you want.
Callbacks
train! takes an additional argument, cb, that's used for callbacks so that you can observe the training process. For example:
train!(loss, data, opt, cb = () -> println("training"))
Callbacks are called for every batch of training data. You can slow this down using Flux.throttle(f, timeout) which prevents f from being called more than once every timeout seconds.
A more typical callback might look like this:
test_x, test_y = # ... create single batch of test data ...
 evalcb() = @show(loss(test_x, test_y))
