System Requirements
clDNN supports Intel® HD Graphics and Intel® Iris® Graphics and is optimized for Gen9-Gen12LP architectures
clDNN currently uses OpenCL™ with multiple Intel OpenCL™ extensions and requires Intel® Graphics Driver to run.
clDNN requires CPU with Intel® SSE/Intel® AVX support.
The software dependencies are:
- CMake* 3.5 or later
- C++ compiler with C++11 standard support compatible with:
- GNU* Compiler Collection 4.8 or later
- clang 3.5 or later
- Intel® C++ Compiler 17.0 or later
- Visual C++ 2015 (MSVC++ 19.0) or later
Intel® CPU intrinsics header (
<immintrin.h>) must be available during compilation.
- python™ 2.7 or later (scripts are both compatible with python™ 2.7.x and python™ 3.x)
