distreqx (pronounced "dist-rex") is a JAX-based library providing implementations of distributions, bijectors, and tools for statistical and probabilistic machine learning with all benefits of jax (native GPU/TPU acceleration, differentiability, vectorization, distributing workloads, XLA compilation, etc.).

The origin of this repo is a reimplementation of distrax, (which is asubset of TensorFlow Probability (TFP), with some new features and emphasis on jax compatibility) using equinox. As a result, much of the original code/comments/documentation/tests are directly taken or adapted from distrax (original distrax copyright available at end of README.)

Current features include:

• Probability distributions
• Bijectors

git clone https://github.com/lockwo/distreqx.git
cd distreqx
pip install -e .

Requires Python 3.9+, JAX 0.4.11+, and Equinox 0.11.0+.

Available at https://lockwo.github.io/distreqx/.

from distreqx import

• No official support/interoperability with TFP
• The concept of a batch dimension is dropped. If you want to operate on a batch, use vmap (note, this can be used in construction as well, e.g. vmaping the construction of a ScalarAffine)
• Broader pytree enablement
