Serrano

Aiming to offering popular and cutting edge techs in deep learning area on iOS devices, Serrano is developed as a tool for developers & researchers with deep learning background to quickly implement their ideas on iOS devices. Meanwhile, it supports macOS as a pure swift framework bonus.

Features

• Implemented an efficient NDArray class Tensor which supports:
  • CPU calculation with BLAS/vecLib/vDSP for better performance
  • GPU calculation on no-copy MTLBuffer for memory saving
• Offer common operators (operator list) for constructing various computation graphs and it is easy to implement custom operators
• Graph API support forward and backward with auto differentiation
• No third-party library dependent. Compatible with iOS 10 and macOS.
