Skymind is a machine intelligence company supporting the open source deep learning framework Deeplearning4j and the JVM-based scientific computing library ND4J. The company was founded in 2014 by Adam Gibson and Chris Nicholson, and is headquartered in San Francisco, California. It is privately funded.

Technology

Skymind has implemented neural networks such as restricted Boltzmann machines, deep belief networks, deep autoencoders, convolutional networks, recurrent networks (including LSTMs), recursive autoencoders and word2vec.

Applications and Use Cases

Skymind's deep neural networks are able to perform dimensionality reduction, classification, regression, collaborative filtering, feature learning and topic modeling. They can be applied to use cases such as machine vision, machine translation, machine transcription, face and voice recognition, time series predictions, business intelligence and econometric analytics.

Deeplearning4j

Deeplearning4j is an open source deep learning library written for Java and the Java Virtual Machine[2][3] and a computing framework with wide support for deep learning algorithms. Its algorithms all include distributed parallel versions that integrate with Hadoop and Spark.[4]

ND4J

ND4J is a free, open-source extension of the Java programming language operating on the Java Virtual Machine—though it is compatible with both Scala and Clojure.[5] It includes the Scala wrapper ND4S.[6]
