Visual Studio 2013 port of Alex Graves's rnnlib found at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rnnl/
A visual studio solution in the ide/rnnlib_vs2013 directory. The required dll's are in the debug and release directories also. You will need to change the VC Directories to point to your Boost include and lib directories.
The original project was released under a GPLv3 license, and the same applies here. All credit and bug reports should go to Alex Graves.
RNNLIB is written in C++ and should compile on any platform. However it is currently only tested for Linux and OSX.
Building it requires the following:
- A modern C++ compiler (e.g. gcc 3.0 or higher)
- GNU Libtool
- GNU automake version 1.9 or higher
- the NetCDF scientific data library
- Boost C++ Libraries version 1.36 or higher (headers only, no compilation needed)
In addition, the following python packages are needed for the auxiliary scripts in the 'utils' directory:
- SciPy
- PyLab
- PIL
And this package is needed to create and manipulate netcdf data files with python, and to run the experiments in the 'examples' directory:
- ScientificPython (NOT Scipy)
To build RNNLIB, first download the source from here, then enter the root directory and type
$ ./configure $ make
This should create the binary file 'rnnlib' in the 'bin' directory. Note that on most linux systems the default installation directory for the Boost headers is '/usr/local/include/boost-VERSION_NUMBER' which is not on the standard include path. In this case type
$ CXXFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/boost-VERSION_NUMBER/ ./configure $ make
If you wish to install the binary type:
$ make install
By default this will use '/usr' as the installation root (for which you will usually need administrator privileges). You can change the install path with the —prefix option of the configure script (use ./configure —help for other options)
It is recommended that you add the directory containing the 'rnnlib' binary to your path, as otherwise the tools in the 'utilities' directory will not work.
Project files are provided for the following integrated development environments in the 'ide' directory:
- kdevelop (KDE, linux)
- xcode (OSX)
