Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Why Lisp? (2015)
> You can write a lot of macrology to get around it, but there's a point where you want actual compiler writers to be doing this
this is not the job of compiler writers (although writing macros is akin to writing a compiler but i do not think that this is what you mean). in julia the numerical programming packages are not part of the standard library and a lot of it is wrappers around C++ code especially when the drivers to the underlining hardware are closed-source [0]. also here is the similar library in common lisp [1]

Machine Learning in Lisp
Personally, I've been relying on the stream-based method using py4cl/2, mostly because I did not - and perhaps do not - have the knowledge and time to dig into the CFFI based method. The limitation is that this would get you less than 10000 python interactions per second. That is sufficient if you will be running a long running python task - and I have successfully run trivial ML programs using it, but any intensive array processing gets in the way. For this later task, there are a few emerging libraries like numcl and array-operations without SIMD (yet), and numericals using SIMD. For reasons mentioned on the readme, I recently cooked up dense-arrays. This has interchangeable backends and can also use cl-cuda. But barring that, the developer overhead of actually setting up native-CFFI ecosystem is still too high, and I'm back to py4cl/2 for tasks beyond array processing.

How fast can you multiply matrices using only common lisp?
Is it me or numcl is faster than magicl? Matrix multiplication on magicl with pure lisp backend is

Interesting, I will, thanks! I am aware of numcl for CL, but I don't think it is "there" yet :).

Good Lisp libraries for math
The first that comes to mind is numcl. This works if (i) performance is not seriously a concern, (ii) you are not annoyed by julia-like JIT/JAOT compilation delays, (iii) copy-based slicing won't be a performance issue for you. To be fair, limitation (i) might be overcome by writing a better (simd-based) backend for numcl. numcl is fast, it compiles to fairly good code, but simd can boost the performance by another 4-8 times or so.
