Owl is an OCaml library for scientific and engineering computing, providing n-dimensional arrays, linear algebra, statistics, optimization, automatic differentiation, and neural networks. It aims to be the de-facto numerical computing toolkit for the OCaml ecosystem.

Use cases

  • perform linear algebra and matrix computations in OCaml
  • run automatic differentiation for gradient-based optimization
  • build and train neural networks in OCaml
  • compute statistics, regressions, and MCMC sampling
  • solve ODEs and do signal processing with FFTs
  • plot and visualize numerical data

When to choose

  • you need scientific computing or numerical analysis in OCaml
  • you want ndarray/tensor operations with broadcasting and slicing
  • you need autodiff and optimization in a typed functional language

When to avoid

  • you need a large ecosystem of pretrained models like PyTorch or TensorFlow
  • you are not working in OCaml
  • you need GPU-heavy deep learning at scale
