Alternatives to DL4J for the Scala programming language

DL4J isn't the only framework for deep learning available for the Scala programming language. Two open source alternatives exist. In this section, we are going to learn more about them and do a comparison with DL4J.

BigDL

BigDL (https://bigdl-project.github.io/0.6.0/) is an open source, distributed, deep learning framework for Apache Spark implemented by Intel (https://www.intel.com). It is licensed with the Apache 2.0 license, the same as for DL4J. It has been implemented in Scala and exposes APIs for Scala and Python. It doesn't provide support for CUDA. While DL4J allows cross-platform execution in standalone mode (including Android mobile devices) and distributed...
