Python Neural Network

This library sports a fully connected neural network written in Python with NumPy. The network can be trained by a variety of learning algorithms: backpropagation, resilient backpropagation, scaled conjugate gradient and SciPy's optimize function. The library was developed with PYPY in mind and should play nicely with their super-fast JIT compiler.

Installation

With pip


pip install nimblenet

Easily install the latest version of nimblenet with pip. The only requirement is NumPy. Additionally, SciPy is needed if you would like to train the network using SciPy's optimize() function.
