How to use

To use this crate in your project, add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
cosyne = "0.3.3"

Network Topology Creation

To create a user defined neural network topology, use ANN struct as such:

let num_input = 3;
let num_outputs = 1;
let mut nn = ANN::new(num_input, num_output, Activation::Relu);
nn.add_layer(5, Activation::Relu);
nn.add_layer(3, Activation::Relu);

Plot feature

Enable the plot feature by passing --features="plot" or in your Cargo.toml

cosyne = { version = "0.3.2", features="plot" }

pendulum_fitness_history

TODOS:

  • user defined crossover type (multipoint vs singlepoint)
  • User defined initial network randomization method
    • uniform
    • gaussian
    • poisson disk sampling
  • allow for recurrent weights
  • Expose mutation distribution to config
  • safeguard public config fields with setter and assertions
  • plot the ANN
