I want to share rusty-machine - a machine learning library written entirely in Rust.

I've been working on it for a while and would love to get some feedback and criticism from this community! Thanks.

Looks neat, the API seems nice, and it'll be interesting to see a new framework now that Leaf[1] has been abandoned. Also fantastic to see a linear algebra library for Rust: that's useful for lots of applications other than just machine learning. I'll be keeping an eye on this :D

Thanks! Rusty-machine doesn't really solve the same problems as leaf so there would certainly be some value in both existing.

I agree on the linear algebra front too! I think it's well worth investing time into. Though - there are some other alternatives you may want to check out:

nalgebra: https://github.com/sebcrozet/nalgebra ndarray: https://github.com/bluss/rust-ndarray (a little light on linear algebra right now)

And there are probably a few others.
