I understand your design philosophy and agree its a useful point in the space to have. One question: Is it possible to feed Neanderthal's matrix representation (the underlying bytes) into one of these other libraries, to obtain computations Neanderthal doesn't support? My situation: Neanderthal covers some of the algorithms I'd like to implement. It looks easier to get started with and understand than the alternatives. But down the line I'll likely want to do convolution, sigmoid, the typical Neural Network layers. Note, I don't care about 'tensors' exactly; the bookkeeping to simulate a tensor can be automated, but the fundamental operations cannot. So there is a question of whether to just absorb the learning curve and shortcomings of these more general libraries rather than to risk switching horses midstream. I imagine I'm not alone in this.. if there was a straightforward story for how to interop Neanderthal when necessary with some more general library that would be powerful. Unfortunately I'm not sufficiently expert to evaluate which of the choices would be most pragmatic and how to pull it off. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
