Open Source Julia Deep Learning Frameworks

Julia is a fast, open source high-performance dynamic language for technical computing. It can be used for data visualization and plotting, deep learning, machine learning, scientific computing, parallel computing and so much more. Having a high level syntax, Julia is easy to use for programmers of every level and background. Julia has more than 2,800 community-registered packages including various mathematical libraries, data manipulation tools, and packages for general purpose computing. Libraries from Python, R, C/Fortran, C++, and Java can also be used.

Lux.jl is a lightweight and extensible deep learning framework in Julia designed for speed, composability, and clarity. Unlike traditional machine learning libraries that bundle training logic and models, Lux separates model definitions from training routines, encouraging modularity and ease of experimentation. It integrates seamlessly with SciML and other Julia packages, supporting neural differential equations and scientific machine learning workflows.

The AI Agent Host integrates several advanced technologies and offers a unique combination of features for the development of language model-driven applications. The AI Agent Host is a module-based environment designed to facilitate rapid experimentation and testing. It includes a docker-compose configuration with QuestDB, Grafana, Code-Server and Nginx. The AI Agent Host provides a seamless interface for managing and querying data, visualizing results, and coding in real-time. The AI Agent Host is built specifically for LangChain, a framework dedicated to developing applications powered by language models. LangChain recognizes that the most powerful and distinctive applications go beyond simply utilizing a language model and strive to be data-aware and agentic. Being data-aware involves connecting a language model to other sources of data, enabling a comprehensive understanding and analysis of information.

Knet.jl is a deep learning package implemented in Julia, so you should be able to run it on any machine that can run Julia. It has been extensively tested on Linux machines with NVIDIA GPUs and CUDA libraries, and it has been reported to work on OSX and Windows. If you would like to try it on your own computer, please follow the instructions on Installation. If you would like to try working with a GPU and do not have access to one, take a look at Using Amazon AWS or Using Microsoft Azure. If you find a bug, please open a GitHub issue. If you don't have access to a GPU machine, but would like to experiment with one, Amazon Web Services is a possible solution. I have prepared a machine image (AMI) with everything you need to run Knet. Here are step-by-step instructions for launching a GPU instance with a Knet image (the screens may have changed slightly since this writing).

MLPACK is a C++ machine learning library with emphasis on scalability, speed, and ease-of-use. Its aim is to make machine learning possible for novice users by means of a simple, consistent API, while simultaneously exploiting C++ language features to provide maximum performance and flexibility for expert users. * More info + downloads: https://mlpack.org * Git repo: https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack
