flashlight_tensor

Tensor library written in pure rust, designed mostly for matrix operations

Package abandoned, use something else

project not related to similarly named flashlight. The name was coincidental and chosen independently.

Current state of package

Package abandoned, because I lack knowledge and will for further development.
"Flashlight" was supposed to be my small project that I will have fun developing, and with more knowledge I gained on the topic, the more I knew I need to rewrite whole project from base.
This is my own decision, and no one can change it. I will still develop a github version, but mostly to learn about machine learning.
Once I feel confident in my knowledge, I plan to create another neural network package, with a proper structure and propably a different name.
The package will stay on crates but without any updates.

If someone wants to publish a crate with that name, please contact me, and I will transfer the ownershit to you

Features

n-dimensional tensors
Element-wise operations
Scalar multiplication and addition
Tensor multiplication and addition

Instalation

[dependencies]
flashlight_tensor = "0.2.4"

Quick Start

use flashlight_tensor::prelude::*;

fn main(){
    //2 rows, 2 collumns, fill with 1.0
    let a: Tensor<f32> = Tensor::fill(1.0, &[2, 2]);
}

Tests

Run tests with:
cargo test

G# means github version # of patch. You can treat that as alpha patch of next version. Versions G are avilable on github early, and those features will be released on cargo with next bigger patch. Not everything in G version is tested and working. You are using it at your own responsibility.

Patch notes

V0.2.4:
- matrix_vec/col, now return a matrix, not vector
- matrix_col/row_sum/prod, return a sum/product of all collumns/rows in matrix
V0.2.5
- G1
  - mutable operations for iterative functions

flashlight_tensor 0.2.5
