The project homepage says "Data scientists and developers can speak the same language now!". So it is surely easier to producitionize a ML project without rewriting the algorithms after the data scientists work out the model with R or Matlab.
- madman2890 10y agoThere are more python developers than scala developers. There are more python data scientists than scala data scientists. I like the project, though.
- haifeng 10y agoThey are more Java developers than python developers :)
- vkb 10y agoI don't know that that's necessarily true. The most recent StackOverflow survey[1] shows a difference of 8%, which is not an overwhelming majority. Granted, that's not an unbiased sample size, but I think the OP above is correct...more data scientists use Python than Java. So anyone wanting to use this library would have to think about tradeoffs: Are the efficiencies lost in data scientists learning to use Java for modeling worth the efficiencies gained in putting a model in production? For some, the answer may be yes, for some no. [1]https://stackoverflow.com/insights/survey/2017#technology-programming-languages https://stackoverflow.com/insights/survey/2017#technology-pr...
