Software Development News The Skymind Intelligence Layer community edition bundles deep-learning libraries with a dashboard to bring machine learning to enterprises using Java
Skymind is releasing its bundle of deep-learning libraries as a free community edition tomorrow. This move is meant to help bring machine learning capabilities to enterprises using Java. As company CEO Chris Nicholson said, “We’ve created scientific computing tools for the JVM.”
Nicholson explained that when you “scratch the surface of deep learning, underneath is scientific computing.”
Much of the work in machine learning has been written in Python, and in its Skymind Intelligence Layer (SKIL), the company has a managed Conda environment that Nicholson said allows Python programmers to use their tools and deploy their models to the Java Virtual Machine. “We’ve built a bridge to get AI models from Python to Java,” he said.
Skymind turned over to the Eclipse Foundation the libraries that make up SKIL earlier this month. According to Skymind, the libraries are:
