Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
A novel library, PCX, is proposed for predictive coding networks (PCNs) in machine learning to address efficiency and scalability issues. The library focuses on performance and simplicity, enabling implementation of a large set of standard benchmarks for the community. Existing algorithms and adaptations of bio-plausible deep learning methods are tested on these benchmarks, achieving state-of-the-art results and highlighting current limitations, which inform future research directions. The goal is to galvanize community efforts towards addressing PCN scalability.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Predictive coding networks (PCNs) in machine learning aim to efficiently process large amounts of data. A new library called PCX helps make this happen by providing a simple and fast way to perform tests on different tasks and architectures. By using existing algorithms and adapting other popular methods, the team was able to test larger-than-usual models on complex datasets, achieving better results than before. This shows what’s currently possible with PCNs and points out areas where more work is needed.
