k9

A small library using core.matrix to construct Neural Networks

Usage

Construct simple 3 layer networks with

(construct-network n-inputs n-hiddens n-ouputs)

Example

(construct-network 2 3 2)
;=> [ [0 0] [input-to-hidden-strengths] [0 0 0] [hidden-to-output-strengths] [0 0]]

Feed foward input and get back output neuron values with

(ff input network)

Example

(ff [1 0] (construct-network 2 3 2));=>[0.023969361623158485 0.014886788800864243]

Train the network on data in the form of [[input target] [input target] ... ] => returns a new network

(train-data network data learning-rate)

Example

(def nn (construct-network 2 3 2))
#'user/nn
;; without training
(ff [1 0] nn) ;=> [0.03061049829949632 0.043037351551821625]
(def n1 (train-data nn  [
                         [[1 0] [0 1]]
                         [[0.5 0] [0 0.5]]
                         [[0.25 0] [0 0.25]]]
                     0.2))
(ff [1 0] n1) 
;=> [0.0383350329723964 0.06845383345543034]

Another example

(defn inverse-data []
  (let [n (rand 1)]
    [[n 0] [0 n]]))

(def n3 (train-data nn (repeatedly 400 inverse-data) 0.5))

(ff [1 0] n3) ;=> [-3.0872502374300364E-4 0.8334331107408276]

Can also train the network repeatedly on a set of data for "epochs"

(train-epochs n network training-data learning-rate)

Example

(def n4 (train-epochs 5 nn (repeatedly 200 inverse-data) 0.2))
(ff [1 0] n4) ;=> [-3.794899940782748E-4 0.8105184486966243

Example with Colors

There is another example in the examples directory where the network learns to name colors based on their rgb value.
