nnetsauce’s new version

A new version of nnetsauce, v0.12.0, is available on PyPI and for conda. It’s been mostly tested on Linux and macOS platforms. For Windows users: you can use the Windows Subsystem for Linux in case it doesn’t work directly on your computer.

As a reminder, nnetsauce does Statistical/Machine Learning (regression, classification, and time series forecasting for now) using randomized and quasi-randomized neural networks layers. More precisely, every model in nnetsauce is based on components g(XW + b), where:

Examples of use of nnetsauce are available on GitHub, here (including R Markdown examples) and here.

v0.12.0 is an important release, because it’s totally written in Python (using numpy, scipy, jax, and scikit-learn), and doesn’t use C++ nor Cython anymore. Because of this, nnetsauce is faster to install, and easier to maintain.

About nnetsauce for R

The R version is discontinued. Well, ‘discontinued’ until I finally wrap my head around it… If you’re interested in solving this issue, and therefore, using nnetsauce for R, everything happens in this R script. You can submit a pull request (and star the repo 😉 )!
