optuna-examples VS Ray

Check out the examples for Optuna, a popular hyper parameter tuning package. It has examples for most popular ML frameworks including Xgboost, so you can see how it compares to an ANN framework like Keras or PyTorch.

That's still regular ML because you are in charge of the features. Optuna might make your life easier though: https://github.com/optuna/optuna-examples/blob/main/xgboost/xgboost_simple.py

Here's a reference from RLlib that points to docs and an example, and here's one from one of my projects that includes all my own implementations

I've wondered whether it's easier to add data analyst stuff to Elixir that Python seems to have, or add features to Python that Erlang (and by extension Elixir) provides out of the box.

By what I can see, if you want multiprocessing on Python in an easier way (let's say running async), you have to use something like ray core[0], then if you want multiple machines you need redis(?). Elixir/Erlang supports this out of the box.

Explorer[1] is an interesting approach, where it uses Rust via Rustler (Elixir library to call Rust code) and uses Polars as its dataframe library. I think Rustler needs to be reworked for this usecase, as it can be slow to return data. I made initial improvements which drastically improves encoding (https://github.com/elixir-nx/explorer/pull/282 and https://github.com/elixir-nx/explorer/pull/286, tldr 20+ seconds down to 3).
