The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Show HN: Designing Bridges with PyTorch
Mostly I use pytorch for statistical modeling https://pyro.ai . Under the hood that package uses a lot of Monte Carlo integration and variational methods (i.e. integration by optimization). It does support neural nets, but probably >80% of pyro users stick to simpler hierarchical Bayesian models.

[P] torchegranate: a PyTorch rewrite of the pomegranate library for probabilistic modeling
Can you compare this to Pyro, which is also built on top of PyTorch?
- [Q] Updated book or review paper on MCMC methods
- Is anyone here working in uncertainty estimation in neural networks?
-
[D] Do you train and deploy models using just one framework or multiple frameworks at work?
Using pyod, statmodels, scikit-learn, Tensorflow and pyro.ai (that is using PyTorch as backend). I always use the same framework for training and for production.

I'm using Omniboard (https://github.com/vivekratnavel/omniboard) with Sacred (https://github.com/IDSIA/sacred) for tracking experiments. You can specify custom Observers in Sacred so the model metrics and logs will be saved to a local directory or to a remote DB (e.g., MongoDB). I use a MongoDB database hosted on Atlas. Unlike other suggested options, Sacred and Omniboard are free. Atlas free tier comes with 512MB of free storage which is a huge amount if you're uploading only log files to it.

Can someone tell me good libraries you use on a day to day basis that increases your research productivity in ML/AI?
sacred helped me log my experiments. I did setup my environment only once 4 years ago, and since then I have a list of all my training runs with the hyperparameters and results.
