  • Should I use newer ghc?

    Someone has opened a PR for accelerate here https://github.com/AccelerateHS/accelerate/pull/525 (sadly seems not actively maintained at the moment, but that can always change if people care enough). I agree for an executable you should freeze your dependencies and compiler version, and using 8.10 is fine. Although there are tons of improvements in 9.2+

    Backprop is a neat library. However, I guess its use case is if you actually don't want to go for anything standard like Torch or TF (perhaps for research?) For instance, if I were to use something like Accelerate for GPU acceleration, or some other computation-oriented library, then I would mix it with Backprop. Previously, I have benefited from Backprop in a ConvNet tutorial and I liked it.

    I know Accelerate is being developed at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. You can look at publications by Trevor McDonell to get a taste of what they are doing.

    Looking for a few projects that make use of it, I found accelerate, hawk, polysemy and pretty-simple, so I'll be interested to poke around in their code and see how they have things set up.

    There's accelerate for GPU computing and hmatrix for bindings to BLAS and LAPACK.

    I'm toying with the idea of replacing vector values with vector generators, where e.g. v1 + v2 is not evaluated to a new vector, but to a vector program. This is similar to the approaches of Accelerate and TensorFlow. On the flip side, I don't think I could get rid of the overhead, and I expect much smaller computation loads than aforementioned libraries, so overheads could be very significant. The added benefit of using vector generators is that the generator could not only be evaluated, but also be turned into a Latex formula.
