TensorFuse – Common interface for Theano, CGT, and TensorFlow

Yeah, but Keras has a lower level abstraction layer to switch between Theano and Tensorflow back ends.

Keras has a low-level compatibility library[1] (`from keras import backend as K`) that people have reported as useful independently. The interface offered by K[2] seems quite similar to that of TensorFuse[3] As the K backend is used for Keras, it also offers proof that K can be used for sizable and complex projects, plus can take advantage of pre-existing testing for Keras.

Whilst I love the idea of CGT, it has not yet taken off. I'd be far more interested in seeing a Neon[4] backend considering it has the fastest performance across the board on existing hardware and they're planning to release their own hardware soon.

Edit: Incorrectly thought TensorFuse didn't support RNNs, thanks dementrock! Also excited that Lasagne has someone working on being backend independent!
