Integrate python libraries with android to use them on Java

Question

I want to make an app which is purely based on AI-based functionality, and I'd like to use some python libraries for that (looking mostly at natural language processing and deep learning). Now, I know there are tools (kivy, NDK) to I can use to develop the app entirely in python, but I really want to develop the app using JAVA.

How can I make an android app with JAVA, while still using some python libraries?

if you can't answer the question ,kindly don't vote it negative. — Zulqurnain Jutt, Jul 06 '15 at 00:30
Which AI packages in Python are you using. Surely there are Java equivalents. — Morrison Chang, Jul 06 '15 at 00:53
i don't know yet , but i think some natural learning processing(NLP) and deep learning algorithms libraries in python — Zulqurnain Jutt, Jul 06 '15 at 01:00

You should look into Deeplearning4j for DL libs in Java: http://deeplearning4j.org/ — racknuf, May 20 '16 at 22:11

As a general approach, you could use Android Studio, which employs Java and XML files, to build your app, and tie that app to python-powered RESTful web services on a back end. Eve is an open-source Python REST API framework which would allow for this.
