Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/your-org/rust-ml-benchmark.git
cd rust-ml-benchmark

# (Optional) Project setup
./scripts/setup_environment.sh

# Recommended: use a Python virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Build Rust benchmarks
find src/rust -name "Cargo.toml" -execdir cargo build --release \;

Running Benchmarks

# Run complete pipeline
nextflow run main.nf

# Run specific phase
nextflow run workflows/phase4_benchmark.nf

# Run individual benchmark
python src/python/classical_ml/regression_benchmark.py \
  --dataset boston_housing --algorithm linear --mode training

Smoke Workflow

  • Status: CNN, LLM, RL, RNN — green. Python Classical ML requires local Python deps.
  • If Classical ML fails on first run, create/activate a venv and install deps, then resume:
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Re-run smoke with resume
nextflow run workflows/smoke.nf -resume
