brain

A future-friendly V8-powered neural network framework for R.

Installation

brain depends on Chrome V8, below is how to install it.

Binary packages for OS-X or Windows can be installed directly from CRAN:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("brain-r/brain")

Installation from source on Linux requires libv8 3.14 or 3.15 (no newer!). On Debian or Ubuntu use libv8-3.14-dev:

sudo apt-get install -y libv8-3.14-dev

On Fedora we need v8-314-devel:

sudo yum install v8-314-devel
````

On __CentOS / RHEL__ we install [v8-devel](https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/v8-devel) via EPEL:

sudo yum install epel-release sudo yum install v8-devel


On __OS-X__ use [v8@3.15](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/v8@3.15.rb) (**not** regular v8) from Homebrew:

brew install v8@3.15 ```

On other systems you might need to install libv8 from source. A compatible version of V8 3.14 is available from https://github.com/v8-314/v8. Build instructions are in the build directory.
