MagmaDNN

A neural network library in c++ aimed at providing a simple, modularized framework for deep learning that is accelerated for heterogeneous architectures. MagmaDNN's releases are located at https://bitbucket.org/icl/magmadnn (and here), while active development occurs at https://github.com/MagmaDNN/magmadnn/tree/dev. If you're looking to contribute or submit a pull-requests/issues, then please do so on the github development repository.

In version 1.0 MagmaDNN offers a strong tensor core with standard machine learning and DNN functionalities built around it. For nightly development builds use the github repository linked above.

MagmaDNN is optimized towards heterogeneous architectures (multi-core CPU and GPU), so it is advised to use with a modern NVIDIA GPU. However, MagmaDNN does support a CPU only install. This is mainly meant for testing and is not nearly as optimized as the GPU version.

The documentation can be found on the docs site. For the most recent version of the documentation see the build & install tutorial on how to build the docs from source. The todo page contains information on the future of the package and the troubleshooting page walks through common issues and there solution.

Tutorials

There are several tutorials in docs/tutorials. These give an introduction into installing and using the library.

Examples

For examples of what MagmaDNN code looks like see the examples/ folder. If MagmaDNN is downloaded and installed, then the examples can be made and run with make examples.

Development Activity

All development takes place on the github site.
