Phylanx Report: October 2017
The second month of work focused on
- Creating a minimal set of primitives (driven by the use case of implementing a full Logistic Regression Training Algorithm – LRA)
- Migrating the code base from using the Eigen library for all matrix related operations to Blaze, adapting the build system
- Refactoring the compilation subsystem of Phylanx to enable support for higher order functions
Organizational activities and results
- Added Phylanx to OpenHub: https://www.openhub.net/p/phylanx
- Weekly group-meeting, minutes:
- Phylanx Seminar
- Explained the current theory, techniques, and methodology used by the Phylanx project
- Given talk at CppCon 2017: The Asynchronous C++ Parallel Programming Model (belated report for Sep)
