## Here is Poutyne.

Poutyne is a simplified framework for [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org/) and handles much of the boilerplating code needed to train neural networks.

Use Poutyne to:
- Train models easily.
- Use callbacks to save your best model, perform early stopping and much more.

Read the documentation at [Poutyne.org](https://poutyne.org).

Poutyne is compatible with  the __latest version of PyTorch__ and  __Python >= 3.6__.

## Getting started: few seconds to Poutyne

The core data structure of Poutyne is a [Model](poutyne/framework/model.py), a way to train your own [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html) neural networks.

How Poutyne works is that you create your [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html) module (neural network) as usual but when comes the time to train it you feed it into the Poutyne Model, which handles all the steps, stats and callbacks, similar to what [Keras](https://keras.io) does.

Here is a simple example:

```python
# Import the Poutyne Model and define a toy dataset
from poutyne import Model
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
import numpy as np

num_features = 20
num_classes = 5
hidden_state_size = 100

num_train_samples = 800
train_x = np.random.randn(num_train_samples, num_features).astype('float32')
train_y = np.random.randint(num_classes, size=num_train_samples).astype('int64')

num_valid_samples = 200
valid_x = np.random.randn(num_valid_samples, num_features).astype('float32')
valid_y = np.random.randint(num_classes, size=num_valid_samples).astype('int64')

num_test_samples = 200
test_x = np.random.randn(num_test_samples, num_features).astype('float32')
test_y = np.random.randint(num_classes, size=num_test_samples).astype('int64')
```

Select a PyTorch device so that it runs on GPU if you have one:

```python
cuda_device = 0
device = torch.device("cuda:%d" % cuda_device if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")
```

Create yourself a [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org/docs/master/nn.html) network:

```python
network = nn.Sequential(
    nn.Linear(num_features, hidden_state_size),
    nn.ReLU(),
    nn.Linear(hidden_state_size, num_classes)
)
```

You can now use Poutyne's model to train your network easily:

```python
model = Model(network, 'sgd', 'cross_entropy',
              batch_metrics=['accuracy'], epoch_metrics=['f1'],
              device=device)
model.fit(
    train_x, train_y,
    validation_data=(valid_x, valid_y),
    epochs=5,
    batch_size=32
)
```

Since Poutyne is inspired by [Keras](https://keras.io), one might have notice that this is really similar to some of its [functions](https://keras.io/models/model/).

You can evaluate the performances of your network using the ``evaluate`` method of Poutyne's model:

```python
loss, (accuracy, f1score) = model.evaluate(test_x, test_y)
```

Or only predict on new data:

```python
predictions = model.predict(test_x)
```

[See the complete code here.](https://github.com/GRAAL-Research/poutyne/blob/master/examples/basic_random_classification.py) Also, [see this](https://github.com/GRAAL-Research/poutyne/blob/master/examples/basic_random_regression.py) for an example for regression that again also uses [epoch metrics](http://poutyne.org/metrics.html#epoch-metrics).

One of the strengths Poutyne are [callbacks](https://poutyne.org/callbacks.html). They allow you to save checkpoints, log training statistics and more. See this [notebook](https://github.com/GRAAL-Research/poutyne/blob/master/examples/introduction_pytorch_poutyne.ipynb) for an introduction to callbacks. In that vein, Poutyne also offers an [Experiment class](https://poutyne.org/experiment.html) that offers automatic checkpointing, logging and more using callbacks under the hood. Here is an example of usage.

```python
from poutyne import Experiment, TensorDataset
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader

# We need to use dataloaders (i.e. an iterable of batches) with Experiment
train_loader = DataLoader(TensorDataset(train_x, train_y), batch_size=32)
valid_loader = DataLoader(TensorDataset(valid_x, valid_y), batch_size=32)
test_loader = DataLoader(TensorDataset(test_x, test_y), batch_size=32)

# Everything is saved in ./expt/my_classification_network
expt = Experiment('./expt/my_classification_network', network, device=device, optimizer='sgd', task='classif')

expt.train(train_loader, valid_loader, epochs=5)

expt.test(test_loader)
```

[See the complete code here.](https://github.com/GRAAL-Research/poutyne/blob/master/examples/basic_random_classification_with_experiment.py) Also, [see this](https://github.com/GRAAL-Research/poutyne/blob/master/examples/basic_random_regression_with_experiment.py) for an example for regression that again also uses [epoch metrics](http://poutyne.org/metrics.html#epoch-metrics).

## Why this name, Poutyne?

Poutyne's name comes from [poutine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine), the well-known dish from Quebec. It is usually composed of French fries, squeaky cheese curds and brown gravy. However, in Quebec, poutine also has the meaning of something that is an ["ordinary or common subject or activity"](https://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/poutine). Thus, Poutyne will get rid of the ordinary boilerplate code that plain [PyTorch](https://pytorch.org) training usually entails.
