This is a simple 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,
mutation_rate: 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())
