Intel's open source deep learning tool library openvino will increase cooperation with local software and hardware parties and continue to open

recently , Intel around AI Intelligent solution 、 Unmanned and clustered topics , A small-scale meeting was held AI Developer private club . At the meeting , Intel's open source deep learning tool library OpenVINO Draw attention to .

OpenVINO Full name Open Visual Inference & neural network optimization, Literal translation “ Open visual inference and neural network optimization ”, It is a deep learning tool library developed by hardware manufacturers for their own hardware platform , Contains inference Library , Model optimization and a series of functions related to deep learning model deployment . Since release ,OpenVINO The development framework accelerates performance because of its powerful model transformation and model reasoning , Widely praised .

OpenVINO The development framework can provide more in-depth learning models 、 Device mobility and higher reasoning performance , At the same time, reduce code changes . Besides , It also supports various hardware instruction acceleration 、 Various precision models 、 Support model topology and hierarchy view , Support the integration of existing deep learning frameworks ,OpenCV And other computer vision development frameworks .

At the meeting , Intel is right OpenVINO The open source situation of , from 2018 Open source since ,OpenVINO The community is developing in a more prosperous direction .

First ,OpenVINO It's completely open source . Intel Express ,OpenVINO There is not only an open source version , There is also a closed source version to give users a more comprehensive and better user experience . The open source version is to realize some application scenarios and requirements of customers , To quickly iterate and upgrade functions . 

If customers want to experience the latest 、 Different motor functions 、 And the most inferential integration , Then Intel will advise big customers to use the open source version OpenVINO. at present ,OpenVINO All tool chains 、 All components are open source .

secondly ,OpenVINO The open source community of is currently growing rapidly . Intel introduction , OpenVINO The whole warehouse is built by different tools , some APP Components such as driving related , We have got sevenoreight thousand Star Such a volume , It's very popular .

For community activity , From open source to now ,OpenVINO More and more active . They not only rely on GitHub Wait for the code hosting platform , There are many wechat groups in the community 、QQ Group , New developers will continue to join , Developers will raise some problems they encounter in the Group .

Intel thinks , The biggest highlight and significance of open source community is that it is an interactive platform , It's not just a question , It will also sort out the questions and problem-solving process into documents and blogs after asking questions , Feedback mileage and key information , Let other developers in the community refer to , This is also OpenVINO The greatest significance of the open source community .

About external contributors ,OpenVINO In recent years, we have seen very significant curve changes ,OpenVINO Indeed, it has been loved by more and more developers in practical applications . for instance , Some developers cannot meet their needs because of some existing solutions , Some of the hardware it uses has compatibility problems , He hopes to be able to  OpenVINO Combined with these external hardware , Then he developed such a plug-in . It is the contribution of such external developers , Give Way  OpenVINO The development path is more and more extensive .

Intel Express , There are many chip manufacturers in China , How can the hardware they develop be seamlessly included  OpenVINO Well ？ Of course, it is through the open software platform , Include more hardware , Provide developers with a one-stop smooth experience , This will be  OpenVINO A major direction of long-term development in the future .

Again , At the software level ,OpenVINO There are also some very successful cases . Prior to  OpenVINO A partner with Baidu , Feedback is also good . Now? ,OpenVINO Get a lot of external forces through product integration , We have a very active ecosystem abroad . And in the domestic , Because wechat is used in China , So we communicate with developers through wechat groups .

Besides ,OpenVINO Various activities are held regularly , Communicate and learn among developers ; Launch a variety of technical documents , For developers to learn .

Last ,OpenVINO Also said , future  OpenVINO Will continue to open , Intel has “ Developer first ” Our strategic philosophy , The first thing to do is “ to open up ”. And then ,OpenVINO We will strengthen open source and ecological cooperation on a global scale , Cooperate with more local software and hardware .
