ScalaNLP vs Torch: What are the differences?

What is ScalaNLP? A suite of machine learning and numerical computing libraries. ScalaNLP is a suite of machine learning and numerical computing libraries.

What is Torch? An open-source machine learning library and a script language based on the Lua programming language. It is easy to use and efficient, thanks to an easy and fast scripting language, LuaJIT, and an underlying C/CUDA implementation.

ScalaNLP and Torch can be categorized as "Machine Learning" tools.

Some of the features offered by ScalaNLP are:

• ScalaNLP is the umbrella project for several libraries:
• Breeze is a set of libraries for machine learning and numerical computing
• Epic is a high-performance statistical parser and structured prediction library

On the other hand, Torch provides the following key features:

• A powerful N-dimensional array
• Lots of routines for indexing, slicing, transposing
• Amazing interface to C, via LuaJIT

ScalaNLP is an open source tool with 2.95K GitHub stars and 678 GitHub forks. Here's a link to ScalaNLP's open source repository on GitHub.
