NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

DeepLearning.scala is an open source deep-learning toolkit in Scala created by our colleagues at ThoughtWorks. We're excited about this project because it uses differentiable functional programming to create and compose neural networks; a developer simply writes code in Scala with static typing. DeepLearning.scala currently supports basic types such as float, double, GPU-accelerated N-dimensional arrays as well as algebraic data types. We're looking forward to future releases of the toolkit which are said to support higher order functions and distributed training on Spark.
