Keras library is a heavyweight among deep-learning developers: Keras provides an interface to the
TensorFlow,
CNTK, and
Theano deep-learning frameworks and tool kits.���
and:
I���d love to be able to say, when people challenge me about Smalltalk, that we have those, or the logical equivalent of this.
