🚀 NeuralOps v1.0.0: Initial Architecture & Foundation Release
🌟 Highlights
-
Complete 232-Module Registry Formulation: Inaugural release establishing 159 attention mechanisms and 73 compression engine modules with full backward-compatible legacy aliasing.
-
Decomposed Modular Architecture: Replaced 6 monolithic god files with structured domain packages (
neuralops.attentions, neuralops.compression_engine, neuralops.core), maintaining 100% backward compatibility via re-exports.
-
Subquadratic Attention Foundations: Established baseline linear attention ($O(N)$ computational and memory complexity), recurrent state formulations, and causal state updates.
-
Low-Rank SVD Factorization: Mathematical baseline for Truncated Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), Frobenius-norm reconstruction error tracking, and spectral energy analysis.
-
Unified Benchmarking CLI: New
python -m neuralops.benchmarks CLI with run, resume, plan, list, verify, and results subcommands.
-
Cold Import Optimization: Sub-3-second framework import via lazy-loading registries.
🏗️ Architectural Breakdown
1. Subquadratic Attention Foundations (neuralops.attentions)
-
Linear Attention: Replaces softmax attention matrix $O(N^2)$ with kernelized feature projections $\phi(Q) \phi(K)^T V$, scaling linearly $O(N)$ in time and memory.
-
Recurrent State Formulation: Translates causal attention into an equivalent recurrent hidden state update $S_t = S_{t-1} + \phi(K_t)^T V_t$.
-
Unified Attention Contract: Standardized call signature
forward(hidden_states, attention_mask=None, past_key_values=None).
2. SVD Factorization Baseline (neuralops.compression_engine)
-
Truncated SVD: Decomposes weight matrix $W \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ into $U \Sigma V^T$, truncated to target rank $r$.
-
LowRankLinear Module: Drop-in
nn.Module replacing linear layers with factorized $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times r}$ and $B \in \mathbb{R}^{r \times n}$.
-
Reconstruction Metrics: Automated tracking of relative Frobenius reconstruction error $|W - U_r \Sigma_r V_r^T|_F / |W|_F$.
3. Registry & Dispatch Infrastructure (neuralops.core.registry)
- ATTENTION_REGISTRY & COMPRESSOR_REGISTRY: Central decorator-based registry allowing zero-overhead module discovery and lookup.
- Lazy Loading: Deferred imports reducing initial library load time down to < 2.8s.
