## Lightweight computation graphs for Python

GraphKit is a lightweight Python module for creating and running ordered graphs of computations, where the nodes of the graph correspond to computational operations, and the edges correspond to output --> input dependencies between those operations. Such graphs are useful in computer vision, machine learning, and many other domains.

## Quick start

Here's how to install:

```
pip install graphkit
```

Here's a Python script with an example GraphKit computation graph that produces multiple outputs (`a * b`, `a - a * b`, and `abs(a - a * b) ** 3`):

```
from operator import mul, sub
from graphkit import compose, operation

# Computes |a|^p.
def abspow(a, p):
c = abs(a) ** p
return c

# Compose the mul, sub, and abspow operations into a computation graph.
graph = compose(name="graph")(
operation(name="mul1", needs=["a", "b"], provides=["ab"])(mul),
operation(name="sub1", needs=["a", "ab"], provides=["a_minus_ab"])(sub),
operation(name="abspow1", needs=["a_minus_ab"], provides=["abs_a_minus_ab_cubed"], params={"p": 3})(abspow)
)

# Run the graph and request all of the outputs.
out = graph({'a': 2, 'b': 5})

# Prints "{'a': 2, 'a_minus_ab': -8, 'b': 5, 'ab': 10, 'abs_a_minus_ab_cubed': 512}".
print(out)

# Run the graph and request a subset of the outputs.
out = graph({'a': 2, 'b': 5}, outputs=["a_minus_ab"])

# Prints "{'a_minus_ab': -8}".
print(out)
```

As you can see, any function can be used as an operation in GraphKit, even ones imported from system modules!
