[MLC@Home] DS3 Dataset of 1 million trained neural networks is available for download!

Post by BOINC_News »

Hello volunteers!

Just a quick note that Dataset 3 is finally posted for download at our site https://www.mlcathome.org/mlds.html! Dataset 3 was completed a few months ago, but due to its massive size (2.25TB in all), and us emphasizing our own analysis over packaging the results for download, its taken us until now to make it available.

As a reminder, DS3 contains over 1 million trained neural networks (10,000/ea modelling 100 different automata), with a goal of analyzing how networks of the same size and shape encode similar-but-not-exact training data. Expect an updated paper soon!

We've always held that if the public is doing work for this project, then the results of that work should be made available back to the public to further science. As of right now, all of DS1, DS2, and DS3 are available to the public under a CC-BY-SA 4.0 license. We will do the same with DS4 when it completes.

DS3 is released via torrents due to its size. A few volunteers have already downloaded and seeded these (very large) files, so hopefully new downloads should be a bit quicker than us just serving from our singular server. The torrent files are listed on our website, and we're using the Academic Torrents tracker (see: https://academictorrents.com/browse.php?search=mlds.

Thanks again to all our volunteers! DS3 is quite an accomplishment!
