[Jprogramming] gpu-backed J vs Tensorflow

[Dabrowski, Andrew John]

Even when running java in server mode?

Hi,

  In my experience, on the CPU, J beats Java. I suspect this is due to
Java's GC and J's ability to via "higher representation of ranks/loops" to
run highly optimized code.

  Is there any reason to believe that GPU-backed-J would beat Tensorflow on
Tensor / Deep Learning work ?

  Given that much of said works reduces to cuBlas + cuDNN, it seems like a
GPU-backed-J, although more concise, would end up calling the same
functions.

Thanks,
