## ๐ How to Use
### Installation
Add `jax-rs` to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
jax-rs = "0.1"
pollster = "0.4" # For WebGPU initialization
```
Or install with cargo:
```bash
cargo add jax-rs
```
### Quick Start: NumPy Operations
```rust
use jax_rs::{Array, Shape, DType};
fn main() {
// Create arrays
let x = Array::from_vec(vec![1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0], Shape::new(vec![2, 2]));
let y = Array::from_vec(vec![5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0], Shape::new(vec![2, 2]));
// NumPy-style operations
let sum = x.add(&y); // Element-wise addition
let product = x.mul(&y); // Element-wise multiplication
let matmul = x.matmul(&y); // Matrix multiplication
// Reductions
let total = x.sum_all(); // Sum all elements: 10.0
let mean = x.mean_all(); // Mean: 2.5
// Reshaping
let reshaped = x.reshape(Shape::new(vec![4])); // Flatten to 1D
println!("Result: {:?}", sum.to_vec());
}
```
### Automatic Differentiation
```rust
use jax_rs::{Array, Shape, grad};
fn main() {
// Define a function f(x) = xยฒ + 2x + 1
let f = |x: &Array| {
x.mul(x).add(&x.mul(&Array::full(2.0, x.shape().clone(), x.dtype())))
.add(&Array::ones(x.shape().clone(), x.dtype()))
.sum_all_array()
};
// Compute gradient df/dx = 2x + 2
let df = grad(f);
let x = Array::from_vec(vec![1.0, 2.0, 3.0], Shape::new(vec![3]));
let gradient = df(&x); // [4.0, 6.0, 8.0]
println!("Gradient: {:?}", gradient.to_vec());
}
```
### WebGPU Acceleration
```rust
use jax_rs::{Array, Device, Shape, DType};
use jax_rs::backend::webgpu::WebGpuContext;
fn main() {
// Initialize WebGPU (once at startup)
pollster::block_on(async {
WebGpuContext::init().await.expect("GPU not available");
});
// Create large arrays on GPU
let n = 1024;
let a = Array::zeros(Shape::new(vec![n, n]), DType::Float32)
.to_device(Device::WebGpu);
let b = Array::ones(Shape::new(vec![n, n]), DType::Float32)
.to_device(Device::WebGpu);
// GPU-accelerated matrix multiplication (50-100x faster)
let c = a.matmul(&b);
// Download result
let result = c.to_vec();
println!("Computed {}x{} matrix on GPU", n, n);
}
```
### Training a Neural Network
```rust
use jax_rs::{Array, Shape, DType, grad, nn, optim};
fn main() {
// Model: f(x) = Wยทx + b
let mut weights = Array::randn(Shape::new(vec![10, 5]), DType::Float32);
let mut bias = Array::zeros(Shape::new(vec![10]), DType::Float32);
// Training data
let x = Array::randn(Shape::new(vec![32, 5]), DType::Float32); // Batch of 32
let y_true = Array::randn(Shape::new(vec![32, 10]), DType::Float32);
// Loss function
let loss_fn = |w: &Array, b: &Array| {
let y_pred = x.matmul(&w.transpose()).add(b);
y_pred.sub(&y_true).square().mean_all_array()
};
// Optimizer
let mut optimizer = optim::adam_init(&weights);
// Training loop
for epoch in 0..100 {
// Compute gradients
let grad_w = grad(|w| loss_fn(w, &bias))(&weights);
let grad_b = grad(|b| loss_fn(&weights, b))(&bias);
// Update parameters
weights = optim::adam_update(&weights, &grad_w, &mut optimizer, 0.001);
bias = bias.sub(&grad_b.mul(&Array::full(0.001, bias.shape().clone(), bias.dtype())));
if epoch % 10 == 0 {
let loss = loss_fn(&weights, &bias).to_vec()[0];
println!("Epoch {}: Loss = {:.4}", epoch, loss);
}
}
}
```
### Random Number Generation (GPU-Accelerated)
```rust
use jax_rs::{Device, DType, Shape};
use jax_rs::random::{PRNGKey, uniform_device, normal_device, exponential_device};
fn main() {
// Initialize GPU
pollster::block_on(async {
jax_rs::backend::webgpu::WebGpuContext::init().await.unwrap();
});
let key = PRNGKey::from_seed(42);
// Generate 10M random numbers on GPU (60x faster than CPU)
let samples = uniform_device(
key.clone(),
Shape::new(vec![10_000_000]),
DType::Float32,
Device::WebGpu
);
// Normal distribution
let normal_samples = normal_device(
key.clone(),
Shape::new(vec![1_000_000]),
DType::Float32,
Device::WebGpu
);
// Exponential distribution
let exp_samples = exponential_device(
key,
1.0, // rate parameter
Shape::new(vec![1_000_000]),
DType::Float32,
Device::WebGpu
);
println!("Generated {} uniform samples", samples.size());
}
```
