Just want to jump in and say I have been thinking about ways to marry Explorer and Axon. Specifically being able to pass in a Dataframe without having to convert to another representation and then getting a Dataframe back. But, perhaps there's another standard we can unify on within the ecosystem so that ML libraries like Axon and the scikit-learn equivalent can work with the same representations - that way we can pretty much plug-and-play with different models across libraries without having to worry about how data should be represented. And libraries like Explorer can have some idea of how data might be used later on.

Relevant issues in the ecosystem:

This is a pretty interesting one. I know that a scikit-learn equivalent for the Nx ecosystem is being worked on. I don't think Explorer is the right place for much of that functionality. However, there is a cost to copying data from its Rust representation to Elixir to then carry out these computations. I'll have to give it some thought.

@josevalim do you have an opinion on this? In R and Python you can typically pass a dataframe as the data for regression, and in an ideal situation (e.g. tidymodels) your output is a dataframe too. Forecasting/time series is another area where this kind of thing shines and you'd want to pass in a dataframe directly.

We are exploring something like scikit-learn on top of Nx, so it may be less general purpose than scikit-learn. It may also be worth it to have some of those ideas on top of explorer too, maybe in this or as a separate library. I think we don't need to make a decision for now and we can wait until things develop a bit. And of course, others are free to explore this too!

As I believe https://github.com/elixir-nx/scholar will fill this niche (once we've implemented the Nx.Container protocol), I'm closing this as it won't live here.
