ML: Nvidia GPU "cuDNN" Deep Neural Network Library

Accelerate Machine Learning with the cuDNN Deep Neural Network Library | Parallel Forall

"...The hottest area in Machine Learning (ML) today however, is the area of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). The success of DNNs has been greatly accelerated by using GPUs, which have become the platform of choice for training large, complex DNN-based ML systems.
...
A few that have publicly acknowledged using GPUs with deep learning include Adobe, Baidu, Nuance, and Yandex.

Because of the increasing importance of DNNs in both industry and academia and the key role of GPUs, NVIDIA is introducing a library of primitives for deep neural networks called cuDNN. The cuDNN library makes it easy to obtain state-of-the-art performance with DNNs, and provides other important benefits."
