Welcome to the Anakin GitHub.
Anakin is an cross-platform, high-performance inference engine, which is originally developed by Baidu engineers and is a large-scale application of industrial products.
Please refer to our release announcement to track the latest feature of Anakin.
-
Flexibility
Anakin supports a wide range of neural network architectures and diffrent hardware platform. It is easy to run Anakin at GPU/x86/ARM platform.
-
High performance
In order to giving full play to the performance of hardware, we optimize the forward prediction at diffrent levels.
-
Automatic graph fusion. The goal of all performance optimization under a given algorithm is to make ALU as busy as possible, Operator fusion can effectively reduce memory access and keep ALU busy.
-
Memory reuse. Forward prediction is a one-way calculation. We reuse the memory between the input and output of different operators, thus reducing the overall memory overhead.
-
Assembly level optimization. Saber is Anakin's underlying DNN library, which is deeply optimized at assembly level. Performance comparison between Anakin, TensorRT and Tensorflow-lite, please refer to the benchmark tests.
