Waffle is a framework that lets you use lots of different deep learning tools through just one interface. When it comes to MLOps (machine learning operations), you need to be able to keep up with all the new ideas in deep learning as quickly as possible. But it's hard to do that if you have to write all the code yourself. That's why we started a project to bring together different tools into one framework.

Experience the power of multiple deep learning frameworks at your fingertips with Waffle's seamless integration, unlocking limitless possibilities for your machine learning projects.

We've tested Waffle on the following environments:

OS	Python	PyTorch	Device	Backend	Pass
Ubuntu 20.04	3.9, 3.10	1.13.1	CPU, GPU	All
Windows	3.9, 3.10	1.13.1	CPU, GPU	All
Ubuntu 20.04	3.9	1.13.1	Multi GPU	Ultralytics

We recommend using above environments for the best experience.

1. Install pytorch and torchvision
   • PyTorch and TorchVision (We recommend using 1.13.1)
2. Install Waffle Hub
   • pip install -U waffle-hub

We provide both python module and CLI for Waffle Hub.

Following examples do the exact same thing.

from waffle_hub.dataset import Dataset
dataset = Dataset.sample(
  name = "mnist_classification",
  task = "classification",
)
dataset.split(
  train_ratio = 0.8,
  val_ratio = 0.1,
  test_ratio = 0.1
)
export_dir = dataset.export("YOLO")

from waffle_hub.hub import Hub
hub = Hub.new(
  name = "my_classifier",
  task = "classification",
  model_type = "yolov8",
  model_size = "n",
  categories = dataset.get_category_names(),
)
hub.train(
  dataset = dataset,
  epochs = 30,
  batch_size = 64,
  image_size=64,
  device="cpu"
)
hub.inference(
  source=export_dir,
  draw=True,
  device="cpu"
)
