NN is flavor of the month at HN but these core toolkits don't really do much. They're all running the same Fortran code and MIT FFT libraries Matlab's been using for 20+ years. It's the base that the cool experiments happen on top of. Once you dig in and try to actually do something, you stumble on the cool stuff. It's often Python throwaway or Matlab spaghetti code in a .edu directory that starts with a tilde. And it disappears when you need it most. (If it's Python, it's guaranteed to be something wonky that uses 2.7 if you're on 3.x or vice versa, or requires three additional packages that throw obscure build errors on your distro. And if it's Matlab, it inevitably requires you to shell out another $299 for some stupid toolbox just to generate white noise...) Good times. I won't kill your fun by being overly specific. Dig in!
