Soft Computing
Pros:
• Lots of modular pieces that are easy
to combine
• Easy to write your own layer types
and run on GPU
• Lots of pre-trained models
Cons:
• You usually write your own training
code (Less plug and play)
• No commercial support
• Spotty documentation
(Facebook)
Pros:
• Python + Numpy
• Computational graph abstraction,
like Theano
• Faster compile times than Theano
• Data and model parallelism
Cons:
• Slower than other frameworks
• Not many pre-trained models
• Computational graph is pure
Python,therefore slow
• Drops out to Python to load each
new training batch
(Google)
15
Pros:
• Good for feedforward networks and
image processing
• Good for fine-tuning existing
networks
• Train models without writing any
code
• Python interface is pretty useful
Cons:
• Need to write C++ / CUDA for new
GPU layers
• Not good for recurrent networks
• Probably dying; slow development
(Berkeley AI Research)
Pros:
• Python + Numpy
• Computational graph is nice
abstraction
• High level wrappers (Keras,
Lasagne) ease the pain
Cons:
• Raw Theano is somewhat low-level
• Large models can have long
compile times
• Single GPU
(Université de Montréal)
16
Pros:
• Intuitive API inspired by Torch
• Works with Theano and TensorFlow
• Fast growing framework
(François Chollet,A Google Engineer)
Gensim is a fast implementation of word2vec implemented in Python. While
Gensim is not a general purpose ML platform, for word2vec, it is at least an
order of magnitude faster than TensorFlow. It is supported by the NLP
consulting firm Rare Technologies.
