Numerix

A collection of useful mathematical functions in Elixir with a slant towards statistics, linear algebra and machine learning.

Installation

Add numerix to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

  def deps do
    [{:numerix, "~> 0.6"}]
  end

Ensure numerix and its dependencies are started before your application:

  def application do
    [applications: [:numerix, :gen_stage, :flow]]
  end

Examples

Features

Tensor API

Numerix now includes a Tensor API that lets you implement complex math functions with little code, similar to what you get from numpy. And since Numerix is written in Elixir, it uses Flow to run independent pieces of computation in parallel to speed things up. Depending on the type of calculations you're doing, the bigger the data and the more cores you have, the faster it gets.

NOTE: Parallelization can only get you so far. In terms of raw speed, a pure Elixir solution will always be much slower compared to one that leverages low-level routines like BLAS or similar.
