• Samples: ・XOR ・CNN ・AlexNet ・VGG ・ResNet ・Others
• SampleData: ・MNIST ・FashionMNIST ・CIFAR 10/100
• Importable: ・CaffeModel ・ChainerModel ・ONNXModel

Features

• Uses the same "Define by Run" approach as PyTorch and Keras.
• No libraries are used for matrix operations, so all algorithms are readable.
• OpenCL is used for parallel processing, so processing can be parallelized not only on GPUs, but also on CPUs, FPGAs, and various other computing devices.

• Additional installation of the corresponding driver may be required to use OpenCL.

• Intel CPU or GPU: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/opencl-drivers
• AMD CPU or GPU: https://www.amd.com/en/support
• Nvidia GPU: https://developer.nvidia.com/opencl

Advantages of being built in C#.

• Easy to set up a development environment and easy to learn for beginners in programming.
• There are many options for visual representation of processing results, such as the .Net standard Form and Unity.
• Development for various platforms such as PCs, mobile devices, and embedded devices is possible.
