Announcing new open source project Intel® Math Kernel Library for Deep Neural Networks (Intel® MKL-DNN)

[Zhang_Z_Intel]

Intel® Math Kernel Library for Deep Neural Networks (Intel® MKL-DNN) is now available on the Github (https://github.com/01org/mkl-dnn) as an open source performance library for Deep Learning (DL) applications intended for acceleration of DL frameworks on Intel® architecture. Intel® MKL-DNN includes highly vectorized and threaded building blocks to implement convolutional neural networks (CNN) with C and C++ interfaces.

For an overview of the project, documentation, and other information, please visit https://01.org/mkl-dnn

Good afternoon,

I have two questions :

1-Are there precompiled libraries (compiled of course with Intel C/C++) available for Windows x64 ? 

2- Is there an example of a convolutional neural network implemented with the toolkit ?

Thanks in advance,

Jean Vezina

Just for your information,

1. The open source version, seems no precompiled library  for windows. but the NN API in MKL have both Linux and windows version.

2. there is an example of a convolutional neural network implemented in the toolkit. like ~/mkl-dnn/examples

Here is one article to go through the package:
