Each op `foo :: ...` now has a corresponding `foo' :: OpParams -> ...`
which lets you set optional attributes. `OpParams` is currently a type alias for
`OpDef -> OpDef`. In the future we should consider more type safety, e.g.,
using type-level strings and OverloadedLabels for optional attributes.
I used it to replace a few manual `buildOp`s in our code with the codegenerated
ops, now that it's easier to set attributes. I also removed `tensorAttr` and
`named` since it's now possible to set those op attributes directly.
Although this clutters up the API a bit, I think it's simpler than using type
classes to implement optional arguments (as in, for example, `Text.Printf`) --
especially in terms of type inference with the rest of the library.
This change adds a class that both `Build` and `Session` are instances of:
class MonadBuild m where
build :: Build a -> m a
All stateful ops (generated and manually written) now have a signature that returns
an instance of `MonadBuild` (rather than just `Build`). For example:
assign_ :: (MonadBuild m, TensorType t)
=> Tensor Ref t -> Tensor v t -> m (Tensor Ref t)
This lets us remove a bunch of spurious calls to `build` in user code. It also
lets us replace the pattern `buildAnd run foo` with the simpler pattern `foo >>= run`
(or `run =<< foo`, which is sometimes nicer when foo is a complicated expression).
I went ahead and deleted `buildAnd` altogether since it seems to lead to
confusion; in particular a few tests had `buildAnd run . pure` which is
actually equivalent to just `run`.
Also removes all the ghc-8-specific logic in the .cabal files.
ghc-8 has issues with deeply nested tuples of constraints. We can
work around it by:
- Changing TensorTypes to a regular class. This required FlexibleContexts.
(But we'll probably need it anyway when we support heterogeneous tensor
lists.)
- Specializing NoneOf for long type lists.
For more details, see: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12175.
Also added 'directory' to tensorflow-core-ops' dependencies since it's used
in the Setup script.
One more step towards fixing #38.
Also fixes op lists when the same attribute specifies the length of
both an input and an output. I added a test of "shapeN" which
previously failed with the following error:
ERROR: Ran out of counts in toResult. Likely misuse of buildListOp.
* Fix for embedding gradient calculation
- Passes vectors instead of scalars to slice
- converts the numRows to a scalar
- add `toScalar` utility function
- minor change to test case so that it actually works
* added lib for testing helper functions
* add flatSlice function
