Regarding TensorFlow (and PyTorch, etc), it is important to note that TF is designed specifically for the deep-learning style of machine learning, but automatic differentiation itself is a much more generally useful and finds applications in physics, finance, optimisation... not just machine learning.
It's true that TF and PyTorch are designed for deep learning applications but is there really anything presenting one using them for the other applications you mention?
