DanLing

Introduction

DanLing (丹灵) is a high-level library to help with running neural networks flexibly and transparently.

DanLing is meant to be a scaffold for experienced researchers and engineers who know how to define a training loop, but are bored of writing the same boilerplate code, such as DDP, logging, checkpointing, etc., over and over again.

Therefore, DanLing does not feature complex Runner designs with many pre-defined methods and complicated hooks. Instead, the Runner of DanLing just initialise the essential parts for you, and you can do whatever you want, however you want.

Although many attributes and properties are pre-defined and are expected to be used in DanLing, you have full control over your code.

DanLing also provides some utilities, such as NestedTensor, LRScheduler, catch, etc.
