Following a thread on #machine-learning on Julia slack, i’m interested in putting together a Julia implementation of [“Liquid Neural Networks”](https://cap.csail.mit.edu/sites/default/files/research-pdfs/Robust%20flight%20navigation%20out%20of%20distribution%20with%20liquid%20neural%20networks.pdf). These are time-adaptive neural networks, inspired by neuroscience models, where each neuron’s activity is a differential equation. The synapses are also plastic and continue to adapt after training. I think this is very interesting, and Julia has a great ecosystem for automatic differentiation with differential equations.

Anyone interested in teaming together to cook up a Julia implementation?

Uhh! I’ll try if I can. I know Tensorflow and PyTorch but haven’t learned Flux yet.

Hello @afishy !

Did you make any progress on that? Anyone knows any implementation working? (examples/tutorials would also be great)

Thanks a lot!

Hello - Has any progress been made here or should I start from scratch?

I’ve uploaded an implementation as a public Pluto notebook to JuliaHub. Search for LTC and it should pop up. It’s tested on the sequential MNIST benchmark mentioned in the Hasani et al. (2021) paper.
