Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, machine-readable media, and devices which operate a neural network defined by user code. A method includes identifying, operations from user code that are integral in operating the neural network, combining a subset of the identified operations into a single processing sequence to be transmitted to an array of hardware processors, performing operations that are not integral in operation of the neural network in a separate thread of execution from the operations that are integral in operating the neural network; and mapping results to the combined operations that were included in the single processing sequence.

Operating a neural network defined by user code

A programming language is implemented in terms of another programming language via deep and/or modified shallow embedding. Embedded language control structures and/or type system are decomposed to primitive features. These features are semantically mapped to host language features. Other embedded language features are explicitly constructed in the host language. A map can also be constructed as a function of implementation to facilitate mapping embedded language applications to host language applications.

Deep embedding of program languages

Dynamic dispatch for classes and interfaces is encapsulated in a class-less scripting language. A plurality of mechanisms is employed to facilitate dynamic polymorphism. One or more target-language constructs, such as dictionary objects, prototype objects and/or derived types, are utilized to capture class and interface-method implementations. These constructs are subsequently referenced at runtime to invoke appropriate code.

Class-based object-oriented features in class-less script language

Systems and methods facilitate data augmentation in a computer environment. Data collections of various forms are altered out of band with at least one augmentor specifying alterations thereto. The alterations are applied to an associated collection of data such as programmatic code. In this manner, data can be modified, extended and/or removed from the collection to enable specialization and/or personalization, among other things.
