JAX is a high-performance numerical computing library designed for machine learning research, which leverages XLA (Accelerated Linear Algebra) for optimizing and compiling numerical computations. This combination enables JAX to efficiently execute large-scale mathematical operations on hardware accelerators, boosting performance and scalability."
