Core Capabilities

1. Single-Node Neural Training

Train neural networks with custom architectures and configurations.

Available Architectures:

  • feedforward - Standard fully-connected networks
  • lstm - Long Short-Term Memory for sequences
  • gan - Generative Adversarial Networks
  • autoencoder - Dimensionality reduction
  • transformer - Attention-based models

Training Tiers:

  • nano - Minimal resources (fast, limited)
  • mini - Small models
  • small - Standard models
  • medium - Complex models
  • large - Large-scale training

Example: Train Custom Classifier

mcp__flow-nexus__neural_train({
  config: {
    architecture: {
      type: "feedforward",
      layers: [
        { type: "dense", units: 256, activation: "relu" },
        { type: "dropout", rate: 0.3 },
        { type: "dense", units: 128, activation: "relu" },
        { type: "dropout", rate: 0.2 },
        { type: "dense", units: 64, activation: "relu" },
        { type: "dense", units: 10, activation: "softmax" }

Best Practices

  1. Start Small: Begin with nano or mini tiers for experimentation
  2. Use Templates: Leverage marketplace templates for common tasks
  3. Monitor Training: Check status regularly to catch issues early
  4. Benchmark Models: Always benchmark before production deployment
  5. Distributed Training: Use clusters for large models (>1B parameters)
  6. Federated Learning: Use for privacy-sensitive data
  7. Version Models: Publish successful models as templates for reuse
  8. Validate Thoroughly: Use validation workflows before deployment

Troubleshooting

Training Stalled

// Check cluster status
const status = await mcp__flow-nexus__neural_cluster_status({
  cluster_id: "cluster_id"
})

// Terminate and restart if needed
await mcp__flow-nexus__neural_cluster_terminate({
  cluster_id: "cluster_id"
})

Low Accuracy

  • Increase epochs
  • Adjust learning rate
  • Add regularization (dropout)
  • Try different optimizer
  • Use data augmentation

Out of Memory

  • Reduce batch size
  • Use smaller model tier
  • Enable gradient accumulation
  • Use distributed training
