Julia would be ideal for those task as well, but alas the libraries aren't there. Julia can easily call Python functions with PyCall, although I still wouldn't want to extensively use a complicated Python library in this way.

Seems like it would be better to call Julia from python.

Python doesn't have the typing support or even availability of many types. Calling Julia from Python in some cases would require something like cython or require even using the C api ahem.
