An amazing Python library built atop Keras and Tensorflow for composing and training probabilistic models in just a few lines. If you're interested in machine learning and/or Bayesian statistics and modeling, you owe it to yourself to check this library out. The webpage has several different tutorials that are all super interesting.

I don't know too much, but I believe this library will be superseded by Tensorflow Probability (Dustin Tran, who writes & maintains Edward is also on the TF Probability team).

Either one of these are super super valuable if you're looking to play around with and invent new ML algorithms, since you can do in 5 lines what would have taken you 1,000 lines and 4 days of debugging to do without these libraries.
