Python is convenient and flexible, yet notably slower than other languages for raw computational speed. The Python ecosystem has compensated with tools that make crunching numbers at scale in Python ...

NumPy is known for being fast, but could it go even faster? Here’s how to use Cython to accelerate array iterations in NumPy. NumPy gives Python users a wickedly fast library for working with data in ...

Although neural networks have been studied for decades, over the past couple of years there have been many small but significant changes in the default techniques used. For example, ReLU (rectified ...
