Key Features

  • Multi-threaded
  • Fully Documented with async-style Docs
  • Preconfigured GRU, LSTM, NARX Networks
  • Mutable Neurons, Layers, Groups, and Networks
  • Neuro-evolution with genetic algorithms
  • SVG Network Visualizations using D3.js

Install

$ npm i @liquid-carrot/carrot

Getting Started

This is a simple perceptron:

perceptron.

How to build it with Carrot:

let { architect } = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot');

// The example Perceptron you see above with 4 inputs, 5 hidden, and 1 output neuron
let simplePerceptron = new architect.Perceptron(4, 5, 1);

Building networks is easy with 6 built-in networks

let { architect } = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot');

let LSTM = new architect.LSTM(4, 5, 1);

let GRU = new architect.GRU(4, 5, 1);

let NARX = new architect.NARX(4, 5, 1);

let Hopfield = new architect.Hopfield(4);

let Random = new architect.Random(4, 5, 1);

// Add as many hidden layers as needed
let Perceptron = new architect.Perceptron(4, 5, 20, 5, 10, 1);

Building custom network architectures

let architect = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot').architect
let Layer = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot').Layer

let input = new Layer.Dense(1);
let hidden1 = new Layer.LSTM(5);
let hidden2 = new Layer.GRU(1);
let output = new Layer.Dense(1);

// connect however you want
input.connect(hidden1);
hidden1.connect(hidden2);
hidden2.connect(output);

let network = architect.Construct([input, hidden1, hidden2, output]);

Networks can also shape themselves with neuro-evolution

let { Network, methods } = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot');

// this network learns the XOR gate (through neuro-evolution)
async function execute () {
  // no hidden layers...
   var network = new Network(2,1);

   // XOR dataset
   var trainingSet = [
       { input: [0,0], output: [0] },
       { input: [0,1], output: [1] },
       { input: [1,0], output: [1] },
       { input: [1,1], output: [0] }
   ];

   await network.evolve(trainingSet, {
       mutation: methods.mutation.FFW,
       equal: true,
       error: 0.05,
       elitism: 5,
       mutationRate: 0.5
   });
   
   // and it works!
   network.activate([0,0]); // 0.2413
   network.activate([0,1]); // 1.0000
   network.activate([1,0]); // 0.7663
   network.activate([1,1]); // 0.008
}

execute();

Build vanilla neural networks

let Network = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot').Network

let network = new Network([2, 2, 1]) // Builds a neural network with 5 neurons: 2 + 2 + 1

Or implement custom algorithms with neuron-level control

let Node = require('@liquid-carrot/carrot').Node

let A = new Node() // neuron
let B = new Node() // neuron

A.connect(B)
A.activate(0.5)
console.log(B.activate())
