Deep Learning with Elixir: Axon, Nx and Livebook
Up to now, most mainstream deep learning (DL) solutions have primarily been built on top of Python (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, etc), and as such have had to work around the limitations of the Python interpreter and ecosystem. Axon is a deep learning framework built in Elixir that can leverage the scalability, distribution, and IO performance of Elixir while providing a functional, elegant and intuitive way to train, test and deploy deep learning models. In this session we will explore Axon, Nx, and Livebook as a deep learning stack in the larger Elixir ecosystem.
