LightGBM VS tensorflow

SIRUS.jl is a pure Julia implementation of the SIRUS algorithm by Bénard et al. (2021). The algorithm is a rule-based machine learning model meaning that it is fully interpretable. The algorithm does this by firstly fitting a random forests and then converting this forest to rules. Furthermore, the algorithm is stable and achieves a predictive performance that is comparable to LightGBM, a state-of-the-art gradient boosting model created by Microsoft. Interpretability, stability, and predictive performance are described in more detail below.

Hey, thanks everybody for your answers. I've asked around in the XGBoost and LightGBM repos and some folks there also agreed that memory speed will be a bottleneck yes.

LightBGM seems to have C API support, and C++ example in the main repo

LGBM doesn't do RF well, but it's easy to manually bag single LGBM trees.

LightGBM is a popular and high-performance open-source implementation of the Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT). To learn how to use this algorithm, please see example notebooks for Classification and Regression.

Here are our benchmarks on training time comparing Tangram's Gradient Boosted Decision Tree Library to LightGBM, XGBoost, CatBoost, and sklearn.

{ inputs = { nixpkgs = { url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable"; }; flake-utils = { url = "github:numtide/flake-utils"; }; }; outputs = { nixpkgs, flake-utils, ... }: flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system: let pkgs = import nixpkgs { inherit system; }; lightgbm-cli = (with pkgs; stdenv.mkDerivation { pname = "lightgbm-cli"; version = "3.3.1"; src = fetchgit { url = "https://github.com/microsoft/LightGBM"; rev = "v3.3.1"; sha256 = "pBrsey0RpxxvlwSKrOJEBQp7Hd9Yzr5w5OdUuyFpgF8="; fetchSubmodules = true; }; nativeBuildInputs = [ clang cmake ]; buildPhase = "make -j $NIX_BUILD_CORES"; installPhase = '' mkdir -p $out/bin mv $TMP/LightGBM/lightgbm $out/bin ''; } ); in rec { defaultApp = flake-utils.lib.mkApp { drv = defaultPackage; }; defaultPackage = lightgbm-cli; devShell = pkgs.mkShell { buildInputs = with pkgs; [ lightgbm-cli ]; }; } ); }

I'm working on the AutoML python package (Github repo). In my package, I'm using many different algorithms. One of the algorithms is LightGBM. The algorithm after the training doesn't release the memory, even if del is called and gc.collect() after. I created the issue on LightGBM GitHub -> link. Because of this leak, memory consumption is growing very fast during algorithm training.

Part of the major userbase pull in GitHub revolves around hosting a considerable number of popular projects including Angular, React, Kubernetes, cpython, Ruby, tensorflow, and well even the software that powers this site Forem.

Right but that's not an inherent GPU determinism issue. It's a software issue.

https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/3103#issueco... is correct that it's not necessary, it's a choice.

Your line of reasoning appears to be "GPUs are inherently non-deterministic don't be quick to judge someone's code" which as far as I can tell is dead wrong.

Admittedly there are some cases and instructions that may result in non-determinism but they are inherently necessary. The author should thinking carefully before introducing non-determinism. There are many scenarios where it is irrelevant, but ultimately the issue we are discussing here isn't the GPU's fault.

and things like y = layers.ELU()(y) work as expected. I wanted to see a list of the available layers so I went to the Tensorflow GitHub repository and to the keras directory. There's a warning in that directory that says:

Exactly what language do you think TensorFlow is written in? :)

You can use Tensorflow's deep learning API for this.

Since you've specifically mentioned ML, here's Tenserflow's GitHub. I'm sure a quick glance through that will change your mind.
