Fairseq
Facebook AI Research Sequence-to-Sequence Toolkit written in Python
Fairseq(-py) is a sequence modeling toolkit that allows researchers and developers to train custom models for translation, summarization, language modeling and other text generation tasks. We provide reference implementations of various sequence modeling papers. Recent work by Microsoft and Google has shown that data parallel training can be made significantly more efficient by sharding the model parameters and optimizer state across data parallel workers. These ideas are encapsulated in the new FullyShardedDataParallel (FSDP) wrapper provided by fairscale. Fairseq can be extended through user-supplied plug-ins. Models define the neural network architecture and encapsulate all of the learnable parameters. Criterions compute the loss function given the model outputs and targets. Tasks store dictionaries and provide helpers for loading/iterating over Datasets, initializing the Model/Criterion and calculating the loss. -

Haiku
JAX-based neural network library
Haiku is a library built on top of JAX designed to provide simple, composable abstractions for machine learning research. Haiku is a simple neural network library for JAX that enables users to use familiar object-oriented programming models while allowing full access to JAX’s pure function transformations. Haiku is designed to make the common things we do such as managing model parameters and other model state simpler and similar in spirit to the Sonnet library that has been widely used across DeepMind. It preserves Sonnet’s module-based programming model for state management while retaining access to JAX’s function transformations. Haiku can be expected to compose with other libraries and work well with the rest of JAX. Similar to Sonnet modules, Haiku modules are Python objects that hold references to their own parameters, other modules, and methods that apply functions on user inputs. -

Stock prediction deep neural learning
Predicting stock prices using a TensorFlow LSTM
Predicting stock prices can be a challenging task as it often does not follow any specific pattern. However, deep neural learning can be used to identify patterns through machine learning. One of the most effective techniques for series forecasting is using LSTM (long short-term memory) networks, which are a type of recurrent neural network (RNN) capable of remembering information over a long period of time. This makes them extremely useful for predicting stock prices. Predicting stock prices is a complex task, as it is influenced by various factors such as market trends, political events, and economic indicators. The fluctuations in stock prices are driven by the forces of supply and demand, which can be unpredictable at times. To identify patterns and trends in stock prices, deep learning techniques can be used for machine learning. Long short-term memory (LSTM) is a type of recurrent neural network (RNN) that is specifically designed for sequence modeling and prediction. -

AIMET
AIMET is a library that provides advanced quantization and compression
Qualcomm Innovation Center (QuIC) is at the forefront of enabling low-power inference at the edge through its pioneering model-efficiency research. QuIC has a mission to help migrate the ecosystem toward fixed-point inference. With this goal, QuIC presents the AI Model Efficiency Toolkit (AIMET) - a library that provides advanced quantization and compression techniques for trained neural network models. AIMET enables neural networks to run more efficiently on fixed-point AI hardware accelerators. Quantized inference is significantly faster than floating point inference. For example, models that we’ve run on the Qualcomm® Hexagon™ DSP rather than on the Qualcomm® Kryo™ CPU have resulted in a 5x to 15x speedup. Plus, an 8-bit model also has a 4x smaller memory footprint relative to a 32-bit model. However, often when quantizing a machine learning model (e.g., from 32-bit floating point to an 8-bit fixed point value), the model accuracy is sacrificed. -

Differentiable Neural Computer
A TensorFlow implementation of the Differentiable Neural Computer
The Differentiable Neural Computer (DNC), developed by Google DeepMind, is a neural network architecture augmented with dynamic external memory, enabling it to learn algorithms and solve complex reasoning tasks. Published in Nature in 2016 under the paper “Hybrid computing using a neural network with dynamic external memory,” the DNC combines the pattern recognition power of neural networks with a memory module that can be written to and read from in a differentiable way. This allows the model to learn how to store and retrieve information across long time horizons, much like a traditional computer. The architecture consists of modular components including an access module for managing memory operations, a controller (often an LSTM or feedforward network) for issuing read/write commands, and submodules for temporal linkage and memory allocation tracking. -

FairChem
FAIR Chemistry's library of machine learning methods for chemistry
FAIRChem is a unified library for machine learning in chemistry and materials, consolidating data, pretrained models, demos, and application code into a single, versioned toolkit. Version 2 modernizes the stack with a cleaner core package and breaking changes relative to V1, focusing on simpler installs and a stable API surface for production and research. The centerpiece models (e.g., UMA variants) plug directly into the ASE ecosystem via a FAIRChem calculator, so users can run relaxations, molecular dynamics, spin-state energetics, and surface catalysis workflows with the same pretrained network by switching a task flag. Tasks span heterogeneous domains—catalysis (OC20-style), inorganic materials (OMat), molecules (OMol), MOFs (ODAC), and molecular crystals (OMC)—allowing one model family to serve many simulations. The README provides quick paths for pulling models (e.g., via Hugging Face access), then running energy/force predictions on GPU or CPU. -

Flax
Flax is a neural network library for JAX
Flax is a flexible neural-network library for JAX that embraces functional programming while offering ergonomic module abstractions. Its design separates pure computation from state by threading parameter collections and RNGs explicitly, enabling reproducibility, transformation, and easy experimentation with JAX transforms like jit, pmap, and vmap. Modules define parameterized computations, but initialization and application remain side-effect free, which pairs naturally with JAX’s staging and compilation model. Flax emphasizes composability: optimizers, training loops, and checkpointing are provided as examples or utilities rather than monolithic frameworks, encouraging research-friendly customization. The library is widely used in vision, language, and reinforcement learning, often serving as a thin layer atop NumPy-like JAX primitives. Tutorials and examples show patterns for multi-host training, mixed precision, and advanced input pipelines that scale from laptops to TPUs. -

Almost every business needs to predict the future in order to make better decisions and allocate resources more effectively. This repository provides examples and best practice guidelines for building forecasting solutions. The goal of this repository is to build a comprehensive set of tools and examples that leverage recent advances in forecasting algorithms to build solutions and operationalize them. Rather than creating implementations from scratch, we draw from existing state-of-the-art libraries and build additional utilities around processing and featuring the data, optimizing and evaluating models, and scaling up to the cloud. The examples and best practices are provided as Python Jupyter notebooks and R markdown files and a library of utility functions. -

Imagen - Pytorch
Implementation of Imagen, Google's Text-to-Image Neural Network
Implementation of Imagen, Google's Text-to-Image Neural Network that beats DALL-E2, in Pytorch. It is the new SOTA for text-to-image synthesis. Architecturally, it is actually much simpler than DALL-E2. It consists of a cascading DDPM conditioned on text embeddings from a large pre-trained T5 model (attention network). It also contains dynamic clipping for improved classifier-free guidance, noise level conditioning, and a memory-efficient unit design. It appears neither CLIP nor prior network is needed after all. And so research continues. For simpler training, you can directly supply text strings instead of precomputing text encodings. (Although for scaling purposes, you will definitely want to precompute the textual embeddings + mask)
