Support creation of Complex Networks #3

Open FlorianCassayre opened 7 years ago

FlorianCassayre commented 7 years ago

Currently the library only allows the creation of basic feedforward networks (essentially a stack of layers stored as a list). But some tasks requires a more complex architecture with mixed connections between layers. This implementation would need deep internal modifications, namely the class Network itself needs to be redesigned and potentially Layer aswell.

Maybe supporting reccurent network could be usefull

FlorianCassayre commented 7 years ago

Yes, indeed (although these fit in another very different category). I was initially thinking about "networks in a network" such as Inception, U-Net and so on. Inception U-Net

Basically two layers are needed: SplitLayer and ConcatLayer But implementing these will violate the rule where each layer must be independent from the others. Perhaps it's fine and I'm just over-engineering the whole thing.
