What it does
OneFlow is a deep learning framework: the core software used to build and train AI models. Its makers designed it to be easy to use, scalable and efficient.
Programmers write models with commands that look like PyTorch, a widely used framework. OneFlow can then spread a model across many graphics cards and machines, and speed it up with a built-in compiler.
It runs on Linux and works best with NVIDIA graphics cards, though a CPU-only version is available.
Who it's for
AI researchers and engineers who train large models across many graphics cards.
