What is the Rails framework of the Machine Learning world?

Rails is famous for being easy to get started. With scaffolding, helpers and the fantastic ActiveRecord library you can put things together in no time. Is there a high level Machine Learning framework in the spirit of Rails?

Here are some that I use Shedding Light on Black Box Machine Learning Algorithms: Development of an Axiomatic Framework to Assess the Quality of Methods that Explain Individual Predictions https://arxiv.org/abs/1808.05054

Manifold: A Model-Agnostic Framework for Interpretation and Diagnosis of Machine Learning Models https://arxiv.org/abs/1808.00196

Neither are for Deep Learnng or Neural Networks

Tensorflow & Keras would be the closest analogy

I would say tensorflow is the anthesis of "convention over configuration" rails is lauded for! w/ TF relative to most frameworks, you have to configure all the boilerplate!

If you're looking for a higher-level approach a lot of the community likes sci-kit which has lots of nice defaults for popular models.
