Lot of inbuilt code, for classifying and other, you don't have to write much of code. supports similar data type as of python. Cons Although it is good but it comes with few issues. Developing RNN with this is big problem its performance will significantly drops Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

AU Anonymous User Research Assistant Higher Education ### "Deep-learning framework with clear layer structure which is easy to understand." 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 April 19, 2018 Pros Caffe is very easy to get started because all the neural network structures are configured with configuration files. I don't need to coding for network design. Besides, it can be used to train state-of-the-art model and large scale of data since its training speed is very fast. The component modularity of Caffe also makes it easy to expand new models. Cons At first, Caffe was designed to only focus on images without supporting text, voice and time sequence. As a result, it is true that Caffe supports well to Convolutional Neural Network, but not good at supporting time sequence RNN, LSTM. In addition, the design pattern based on Layers is not friendly to RNN.
