Re: Propel – Machine learning for Javascript
#2Is there a practical use case for this system? It looks great. I want to parse out textual data and this system seems to only work on numbers sets.
Re: Propel – Machine learning for Javascript
#3I was going to say that this seems like the same as deeplearn.js[0], but it turns out this is built on top of it.
So I guess the real feature is cross-platform compatibility between node and browser?

I guess it's still work in progress, but they are probably aiming to achieve something in the direction of the scientific Python stack (i.e. Jupyter, TensorFlow and the like). Maybe starting with a subset of methods useful in ML.
It will be interesting to see how this scientific JS toolchain evolves. Would be fun to get a more feature-complete Propel ML working with Mike Bostock's Observable project:

#5That's totally exciting! Thanks to the author for enriching the ML ecosystem in JavaScript :)
I didn't explore the full API yet, but already seeing the plotting functionality for functions is a tremendous win for ML in JavaScript.
In case anyone is interested in doing ML in JS in 2018, there exists a larger article which I wrote a couple of weeks ago that tries to convey the state of the art of Machine Learning in JavaScript. [0]

#6It binds directly to the TensorFlow C API, if you run it in NodeJS, which is awesome. I get tired of having to setup a python env anytime I want to play around with ML.
Re: Propel – Machine learning for Javascript
#7Wonder if JS notebook environments like this one, Observable and runkit.com will eventually all consolidate and (hopefully) integrate with Jupyter Notebook / Lab

#8Is anyone aware of a GAN example using propel or deeplearn.js ?

#9This could a fun way to learn ML using just your browser. I'm still skeptic about the performance but for prototyping it could be viable.
One thing bothering me about reading the API is the inconsistent way of adding semicolons. Not an important thing I'm sure and as my personal opinion I'd much rather have the examples without them. To me they are just waste of time. Also it makes the code look more like Python.
Anyway, looks great!

You will hate to hear that there is a serious proposal to make semicolons mandatory in the next version of ECMAScript.
