PyTorch vs Hummingbird: What are the differences?

PyTorch: A deep learning framework that puts Python first. PyTorch is not a Python binding into a monolothic C++ framework. It is built to be deeply integrated into Python. You can use it naturally like you would use numpy / scipy / scikit-learn etc; Hummingbird: Compile trained ML models into tensor computation (By Microsoft). It is a library for compiling trained traditional ML models into tensor computations. It allows users to seamlessly leverage neural network frameworks (such as PyTorch) to accelerate traditional ML models.

PyTorch and Hummingbird can be categorized as "Machine Learning" tools.

PyTorch is an open source tool with 39.3K GitHub stars and 10.1K GitHub forks. Here's a link to PyTorch's open source repository on GitHub.

Advice on PyTorch, Hummingbird

Needs advice

I have just started learning some basic machine learning concepts. So which of the following frameworks is better to use: Keras / TensorFlow/PyTorch. I have prior knowledge in python(and even pandas), java, js and C. It would be nice if something could point out the advantages of one over the other especially in terms of resources, documentation and flexibility. Also, could someone tell me where to find the right resources or tutorials for the above frameworks? Thanks in advance, hope you are doing well!!

What are some alternatives to PyTorch, Hummingbird?

TensorFlow

TensorFlow is an open source software library for numerical computation using data flow graphs. Nodes in the graph represent mathematical operations, while the graph edges represent the multidimensional data arrays (tensors) communicated between them. The flexible architecture allows you to deploy computation to one or more CPUs or GPUs in a desktop, server, or mobile device with a single API.

scikit-learn

scikit-learn is a Python module for machine learning built on top of SciPy and distributed under the 3-Clause BSD license.

Keras

Deep Learning library for Python. Convnets, recurrent neural networks, and more. Runs on TensorFlow or Theano. https://keras.io/

Kubeflow

The Kubeflow project is dedicated to making Machine Learning on Kubernetes easy, portable and scalable by providing a straightforward way for spinning up best of breed OSS solutions.

TensorFlow.js

Use flexible and intuitive APIs to build and train models from scratch using the low-level JavaScript linear algebra library or the high-level layers API

Polyaxon

An enterprise-grade open source platform for building, training, and monitoring large scale deep learning applications.

Streamlit

It is the app framework specifically for Machine Learning and Data Science teams. You can rapidly build the tools you need. Build apps in a dozen lines of Python with a simple API.

MLflow

MLflow is an open source platform for managing the end-to-end machine learning lifecycle.

H2O

H2O.ai is the maker behind H2O, the leading open source machine learning platform for smarter applications and data products. H2O operationalizes data science by developing and deploying algorithms and models for R, Python and the Sparkling Water API for Spark.

PredictionIO

PredictionIO is an open source machine learning server for software developers to create predictive features, such as personalization, recommendation and content discovery.
