Crate concision_params 

In machine learning, each layer is composed of some set of neurons that process input data to produce some meaningful output. Each neuron typically has associated parameters, namely weights and biases, which are adjusted during training to optimize the model’s performance.

Overview

The params crate provides a generic and flexible structure for handling these values. At its core, the ParamsBase object is defined as an object composed of two independent tensors:

• An $n$ dimensional weight tensor
• An $n-1$ dimensional bias tensor

These tensors can be of any shape or size, allowing for a wide range of neural network architectures to be represented. The crate also provides various utilities and traits for manipulating and interacting with these parameters, making it easier to build and train neural networks.

Modules

error

This module defines error types and handling mechanisms for the params crate.

iter

iterators for parameters within a neural network

Structs

ParamsBase

The ParamsBase implementation aims to provide a generic, n-dimensional weight and bias pair for a model (or layer). The object requires the bias tensor to be a single dimension smaller than the weights tensor.

Enums

ParamsError

the ParamsError enumerates various errors that can occur within the parameters of a neural network.

RawParams

The RawParams trait is used to denote objects capable of being used as a paramater within a neural network or machine learning context. More over, it provides us with an ability to associate some generic element type with the parameter and thus allows us to consider so-called parameter spaces. If we allow a parameter space to simply be a collection of points then we can refine the definition downstream to consider specific interpolations, distributions, or manifolds. In other words, we are trying to construct a tangible configuration space for our models so that we can reason about optimization and training in a more formal manner.
