Caffe

  • Developed by the Berkeley Vision and Learning Center.
  • Supports CuDNN
  • Supports Conv Nets
  • Written in C/C++
  • Caffe specializes in machine vision (Nicholson, 25 Feb 15.) and per deeplearning4j.org, Caffee is not intended for other deep-learning applications such as text, sound or time series data (n.d).
  • Per Mayank, Caffe is basically PyLearn2-like (1 Apr 2015)

Theano/Pylearn2

  • Theano was written at the LISA lab (Universtiy of Montreal) to support rapid development of efficient machine learning algorithms.
  • Supports CuDNN
  • Supports Conv Nets
  • Written in Python
  • Pylearn2 is a normal (non-distributed) framework that includes everything necessary to conduct experiments with multilayer Perceptrons, restricted Boltzmann machines, Stacked Denoising Autoencoders and Convolutional nets (Deeplearning4j, n.d.)

Short Answer

This is similar to comparing a Ford to a Chevy. Both Caffe and Theano/Pylearn2 are Machine Learning libraries utilizing backpropogation, gradient descent, biases, weights and hidden layers. The differences lie in development and execution.
