pyhgf: A neural network library for predictive coding

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Bayesian models of cognition have gained considerable traction in computational neuroscience and psychiatry. Their scopes are now expected to expand rapidly to artificial intelligence, providing general inference frameworks to support embodied, adaptable, and energy-efficient autonomous agents. A central theory in this domain is predictive coding, which posits that learning and behaviour are driven by hierarchical probabilistic inferences about the causes of sensory inputs. Biological realism constrains these networks to rely on simple local computations in the form of precision-weighted predictions and prediction errors. This can make this framework highly efficient, but its implementation comes with unique challenges on the software development side. Embedding such models in standard neural network libraries often becomes limiting, as these libraries' compilation and differentiation backends can force a conceptual separation between optimization algorithms and the systems being optimized. This critically departs from other biological principles such as self-monitoring, self-organisation, cellular growth and functional plasticity. In this paper, we introduce \texttt{pyhgf}: a Python package backed by JAX and Rust for creating, manipulating and sampling dynamic networks for predictive coding. We improve over other frameworks by enclosing the network components as transparent, modular and malleable variables in the message-passing steps. The resulting graphs can implement arbitrary computational complexities as beliefs propagation. But the transparency of core variables can also translate into inference processes that leverage self-organisation principles, and express structure learning, meta-learning or causal discovery as the consequence of network structural adaptation to surprising inputs.

#artificialintelligence

With the applications of artificial intelligence and deep learning (DL) on the rise, organisations seek easy and faster solutions to the problems presented by AI and deep learning. The challenge has always been about how to imitate the human brain and be able to deploy its logic artificially. Result: Neural Networks that are essentially designed on the human brain wiring. Neural Networks can be described as a set of algorithms that are loosely modelled on human brain. They are designed to recognise patterns.

Parallelizing neural networks on one GPU with JAX

#artificialintelligence

Most neural network libraries these days give amazing computational performance for training large neural networks. But small networks, which aren't big enough to usefully "fill" a GPU, leave a lot of available compute unused. Running a small network on a GPU is a bit like buying an apartment building and then living in the janitor's closet. In this article, I describe how to get your money's worth by training dozens of networks at once. As you follow along, we'll efficiently train dozens of small neural networks in parallel on a single GPU using the vmap function from JAX. Whether you are training ensembles, sweeping over hyperparameters, or averaging across random seeds, this technique can give you a 10x-100x improvement in computation time. If you haven't tried JAX yet, this may give you a reason to.


Top 10 Must-Know Artificial Neural Network Software

#artificialintelligence

The concept of neural networks is widely used for data analysis nowadays. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is a piece of computing system designed to simulate the way the human brain analyses and processes information. Ultimately, neural network software is used to simulate, research, develop and apply ANN, software concept adapted from biological neural networks. In some cases, a wider array of adaptive systems such as artificial intelligence and machine learning are also benefited. ANNs are lone performers and not intended to produce general neural networks that can be integrated into other software.

Google Introduces Flax: A Neural Network Library for JAX

#artificialintelligence

In optimization theory, a loss or cost function measures the distance between the fitting or predicted values and real values. For the majority of machine learning models, improving performance means minimizing the loss function. But for deep neural networks, performing gradient descent to minimize the loss function for every parameter can be prohibitively resource-consuming. Traditional approaches include manually deriving and coding, or implementing the neural model using syntactic and semantic constraints of a machine learning framework like TensorFlow. But what if it were possible to simply write down loss functions using a NumPy library and have the work done automatically?
