What Hacker News says
5 sourcesThis is a great post! I tried implementing my own GLMs [1] a short while ago. But I ran into a lot of trouble with numerical instability and had a hard time tracking down ways to solve these edge cases.
Hopefully with this as a resource I'll be able to make some more progress on it!

In Generalized linear models, abridgedHey all!
Originally this library existed as a module within https://github.com/AtheMathmo/rusty-machine but I've finally got around to separating this from the machine learning stuff.
Despite being around for a while it is definitely still an early stage library. I'm hoping that by separating it I can speed up development a little and pull in some people who care about the linear algebra and not so much machine learning.
I'd love to answer any questions about rulinalg or rusty-machine. I also welcome any feedback.

2 points · Open discussionWell, it has a bias towards NN and deep learning for now, as this was our initial focus for the proof of concept, but the architecture of Layers and Solvers should allow it to express any machine learning concept/algorithm. We are actually working on it (verifying it) with James from rusty-machine[1][2].
