PyAF will use PyTorch as its deep learning architecture for future projects. A few reasons for this :

  1. Pytorch is fully open source. Green (Ensure that PyAF is and remains Green #176 )
  2. PyTorch internal/technical choices are very sane. It works even in very hash environments : SPARC64 architecture.
  3. SPARC64 architecture : abandoned years ago, no commercial support, very strong technically ( manycore, > 128 threads), with approximate OS (Debian rocks here ;), was able to build a set of packages for PyTorch from scratch : https://github.com/antoinecarme/sparc-t3-data/tree/master/debian-sparc64/packages
  4. PyAF runs OK with PyTorch on SPARC64 and uses all the 128 threads for some complex hierarchical forecasting models.

Get rid of Keras and tensorflow. And now that we have pytorch working (#199 ), no need for scikeras in a pyaf context neither.

Less is better. Minimal is beautiful.

DeprecationWarning: KerasRegressor is deprecated, use Sci-Keras (https://github.com/adriangb/scikeras) instead. See https://www.adriangb.com/scikeras/stable/migration.html for help migrating.
